COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

it's been great
Dublin, Cork, Warsaw, Krakow, Berlin, Hannover, Koln, Frankfurt, Oakland, Portland...
What can I say? There's a whole world of culture and cooking and music and great literature and ideas and fascinating conversations with amazing people out there and couchsurfing.org makes it easy to have tons of these experiences.

I haven't had as many chances to host as I'd like because I move around a lot, so hit me up when you see that check mark.
