Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

In all my trips and here at home i will look at, and include all the couchsurfing possibilities. Hope to meet a lot of new (CS-)friends and learn about the visions and cultural ways of all the people, in their own invironment.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had my first couchsurfing experience in Davao, the Philippines. Had some nice meetings and talks with (local) Couchsurfers, and enjoyed that very much. Learned more about the CS-experiences, and made my first CS-friends.

Interests

I like to meet people from all over the world and learn about different cultures, opinions and ways of live.
I also like to share my occupational and life experiences with anybody who is interested.

• socializing
• travelling
• meet new people

Music, Movies, and Books

Rock, blues, worldmusic, but also interested in local kinds of music. I hardly watch any movies or read any books anymore. Internet has taken that place for the mayor part now.
Internet has made the world like a global village..

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My visit to Ghana, Africa. Whole different world there.. Time is not an issue.. and the respect and honesty to each other is for me as a western man almost impossible to comprehend.
But my visit to the Philipinnes realy beats it all, and made some nice new (CS) friends. eventualy I want to move or retire there.

Teach, Learn, Share

Hmmm just anything.. Just go with the flow.. learn from anyone i can.. and teach to whoever is interested..

What I Can Share with Hosts

Anything what they like, miss or can not do themselfs. Love to help out in everything.
