Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've always wanted to share my couch, but I lived with my parents back home, so now that I work, I can have people over in Glasgow, France, or where ever I move to! I usually introduce my couchsurfers the local (home made) dishes.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A friend of mine and I were looking for a place in 2008, but we ended up being able to stay at a friends. But the CSers were very friendly and ready to find a solution for us. Since then I decided to get involved!

Interests

I love cooking and eating, I do gymnastics, draw, take and modify pictures, sew and try to keep up knitting (failing quite well), I had a radio show with one of my flatmates at uni, now I work in documentary making, and I would love to be involved in more media projects!
