Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to immerse myself in a culture and into a home. Help around the house, communicate, Lear, and tell stories.
I like staying on couches to learn and share.
I like going out and having a good time. Goofing around, party, adventuring, pretty much anything.

ASSISTANT HOST
My (Edinburgh) couch-surf turned into a home away from home. For four weeks I've been living and hosting couch surfers at the house. I show the city, give advice on fun things to do, Porter the luggage around.
I learned a lot from both the Surfer and Host perspective.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music, it is one of the biggest parts of my life. I'm constantly singing songs in my head or making ones up.
Currently I'm reading "peace is every step" by Tich Nhat Han. It's a life changer.
I enjoy all kinds of movies; action, romance, comedy, horror, musicals, heist etc. One of my favorite things to do is go to midnight premiers of movies.
I dont not read a lot, but when I find a book I like I never put it down. I like action and sci-fy books.
