Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

All I can offer at the moment is a meeting at a local restaurant or a tour around town. I'm very optimistic about the CS philosophy and when I have my own home look forward to hosting a variety of great people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had a few couchsurfing experiences and they have all been great. Those involved in the community are open minded and easy to get along with.

Interests

I can be interested in a lot of different things at once and like to bounce back and forth from idea to idea. Change is my friend. These following topics seem to be constants in my life:
-Youtube
-good conversation
-The Internet
-Social Networks
-Drawing
-Driving, Travel
-Art, installation, sculpture, photog
-tennis
-consciousness

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Early 2008 spent 10 days in Italy on a school trip. took in so many sights and works of art. This whole trip really opened my eyes to traveling and a different culture. In the summer of 08 I hitch hiked to Montreal and met some great people on the way.

Lived in a hostel in Victoria, BC for a couple of months in 2012 and met some great folks

Teach, Learn, Share

we never stop learning and I'm open to trying anything new and exciting things - this sounds so cliche. I would love to receive any tips on efficient traveling on a budget.

I think the best way to get to know someone or something is to have a real conversation about it over a cup of coffee or a pint. Everyone has something to teach.
