COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have slept on two couch surfers' couches: Jake Pritchard and Tim Tolka. These two are friends of mine and live in my town, so it is not the most adventurous thing in the world.

I have, however, met with many a couchsurfer in New York and had some great times, conversations and so on.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once I sat on the bank of the East River and watched two lightning storms converge over Manhattan then travel over the river towards me. It was probably not smart to be sitting there, but it was absolutely amazing.
