ABOUT ME

I am Alexander, 23 and living in Philadelphia. After I graduated I got the opportunity to go back to the US for at least one year, I've worked here before. I work as a Rooms Division trainee at the Renaissance Philadelphia Airport Hotel. Civil life has really started now.. Anyway I have 3 brothers, travelled a lot with family and friends through Europe but also in Asia, USA, Canada, Russia etc. I lived in Washington DC for 6 months for an internship for my education. There is always a couch ready here in Philly for you! I would like to get in contact with other ppl in Philly and show you the spots that I know, but I haven't seen a lot myself yet..

PHILOSOPHY

"Travel not to escape your life, but to
prevent life from escaping you"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When me and my brother started preparing our Asia-trip we thought of a possibility to make less costs since it would be a long and expensive trip. We found this site and we liked the concept!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It's been great! I have had a couple couchsurfing experiences and the best was in Moscow where we stayed for a couple nights with great ppl.
