Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am happy to meet people and experience Asia, Great Britain or wherever I am at the moment, drinks and food, stories of superdifferent and still similar people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first contact with CS was a dinner at a friend's place where I had been invited to. I prepared some dishes, walked, rang the door bell and a pretty old guy opened the door. I thought, "No, no, no, no, no... that must be a different door or a simple misunderstanding. Maybe the grandpa or neighbour." I was wrong: It was CouchSurfing including students and families, punkers and ladies in their 50s and, obviously, grandpas. I enjoyed this evening a lot, eating and talking to strangers from completely different backgrounds and origin.

Interests

I do miss Asia and currently try to polish and recover my basic Korean. I also love music of almost all kinds. Listening and participating. And international dinners - perfect to be taught how the make Bucatini all'amatriciana right or to discover the secret of great Tzatziki.
