Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I bring friendships and connections to people i couch surf with. The more people i meet the more positive my experience and the more positivity i can project.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first couch surfing type experience would of been spending a week living in a tree house in Thailand with some locals I became friendly with on the Beach. It was one of the most amazing experiences I have had.

I also lived with some Canadians i met in China early in 2008 for a month. Their couch got a nice work out.

I have since had some amazing experiences with people from couch surfing, travelling right across the US in 2010 staying with couch surfing hosts.

I am constantly amazed by peoples hospitality towards us surfers, people they only just met, but invited into their lives. I hope to provide the same back to surfer when i am set up in my own home.
