I love to experience new cultures, especially the food. I get fatter every time I travel!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My first host in Zurich made me feel like family. I've never felt so welcomed by a stranger before. He and his roommates gave me great insider information about the city - I would not have experienced Zurich in such a great way if I hadn't couchsurfed. It was a great experience.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

What I Can Share with Hosts
