Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well, first i'm trying to understand how it works...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm used to sleep on the couch, but not through "couchsurfing.org". I travel a lot because of my music, and find always a place to sleep by friends or friends of friends, or other musicians. It's (almost) always fun, and i have the feeling I learn a lot about life in general, by doing this!

Interests

I will visit New York in October 2012, and i'll try the "official" couchsurfing! I don't know anybody in NYC, and I think it's the best way to understand the mentality, to have a taste of this culture, and to meet interesting people. I love to cook and to eat new stuff, and I hope my hosts will show my the nice little restaurants, bars, places & clubs that I wouldn't find on my own...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I sat by mistake on the center of the world!

In Delphi (Greece) there's the temple of Apollon, i sat on a usual rock outside the temple because i was tired, it was the center of the world in the Greek mythology... Oops!

Teach, Learn, Share

I enjoy sharing about music, and arts in general! And I think interesting to learn a new culture through the food. I would love to share some traditional receipts or give a few guitar lesson to my host(s), by example!
