COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

couchsurfed all over Iceland!

Hosted many lovely people. What an incredible thing!

also, i joined the mexican circus once. i galloped all over mexico on my horse with a bunch of gypsy musicians and acrobats. we didn't use the CS network, per se, but basically couchsurfed on people's properties in their fields, next to rivers, etc, thanks to the goodwill and generosity of so many people.
