Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have been hosted and I have hosted many times in different countries and I have found this to be a great way learn local things and see how the average Joe live in his or her hood.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

From a living room wooden floor, to a couch, to a soft bed! I have had them all! In China I found there were such lovely hospitable Couch Surfers that took me in and made me feel like I had known them for years. In VietNam I was hosted for some nights in their city and they showed me the sights of Hanoi...eating some delicious foods and having great fun along the way!
Hosting in Canada and Australia was a blast! Meeting some cool people on their travels was a pleasure! It was great to take them to some waterfalls way out of the township and give them a real Rocky Mountain experience!

Interests

I have many interests from gardening to cooking, decoctions and home herbal remedies, skateboarding, snowboarding, surfing, rock climbing and mountain hiking and camping, pretty much anything outdoors, playing drums and guitar or percussion, drawing , creating and making sugar art, chocolate art and fine patisseries

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

become a member of couch surfing!

Plus one more!!

Teach English in Thailand to children from ages one and a half to fifteen years old!
You should try it one day!!

Teach, Learn, Share

Just be yourself and don't expect from others as we are all different. That way you will observe differences and learn something new, and you can share your experiences by communicating with people. Teach others by challenging your own weaknesses and pursue the things you want. Don't give up, that is a lesson in itself!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Many stories from my travels and a seventeen year career in a kitchen!!

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Canada, China, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Thailand, Viet Nam

Countries I’ve Lived In
