Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Even when I am not on this site, I am always hosting someone or someone is hosting me...I have grown to love having fresh faces in my house, especially when there is so much to learn from one another. I have been surfing since 2011 and I am all about reciprocity. CS has changed my life for the better as I have a restored faith in humanity.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
8.9-8.23 Des Moines-I just had a wonderful experience with a lady named Mariah from Des Moines, IA. We didnt't find each other on CS but it was in essence the same thing. She was nothing less of an angel, whose creativity and will, inspired me.
8.29.11-9.1.11 Minneapolis: Just got hipped to Malaysian Food from my first CS host, Nick Lee, who is an awesome host.
