I like meeting new people and connecting with them.

My first CS experience staying with someone was in Sedona, AZ. It was through my daughter's profile so I didn't get a review but it was a very enjoyable. The host was very pleasant and invited us to go hiking with him. The scenery was gorgeous, unlike anything I'd seen before.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet locals, experience new languages and cultures and learn about the lives of others!

I see travel as a way to deepen my appreciation of people and the world and to expand my mind.
