About Me

CURRENT MISSION

doing things, going places

ABOUT ME

I ask a lot of questions

PHILOSOPHY

"some deep yet funny quote which shows how smart I am"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like surfing and meeting and hosting couchsurfing muggles. I have met tons of interesting people through this project.

~~~~~~~~~
If you send me a request: please know that I believe in true couchsurfing. where people are the part of the international community. I don't like when people in their requests write something like: "please let me in for one night, I won't disturb you". As one of the best CS people put it: "I want to be disturbed". [you know, in a good way]. I want to know you and your background, your views and ideas. so please bear it in mind if you write me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

managed to stay without food for more than one day xD

Teach, Learn, Share

CS explained in 5 sentences:

Random muggle: "I want to go to *insert the name of the country* but I don't know anyone there and it would be so lovely to spend time like a local or with locals or both!"

Me: "Use CouchSurfing."

BOOM!

Another random muggle made happy with a knowledge of CS.

You are welcome, world!
