Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I was looking for accomodation in Spain, as I wanted to go there in summer 2012 to learn Spanish and also travel, then i remembered that my friend had told me about this site, then I decided to join to look for someone who could host me in Spain.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I stayed in Birmingham with a Vietnamese couple that I met in CouchSurfing. It was nice meeting them.
I stayed in Paris with a single parent and her daughter, it was a very nice experience.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

While I was snorkelling in Raja Ampat-Papua, I saw the webbed feet of sea ducks that were on the sea surface.
To me, it was so amazing. They were so close to me.

Teach, Learn, Share

In Jakarta, the capital of my country, I paid a taxi driver with 3 oranges and a smile.
Chronology :
I forgot to put money inside my wallet and took a taxi. When I was about to arrive at my destination, I realized that I did not bring money, oh my God..
Sweetly, the taxi driver didn't insist on me paying anything when he knew I did not have money. Then I remembered I had some oranges and then I decided to give him 3 oranges as a payment. But, I would never do this anymore in life. I'd rather find the nearest ATM and pay the taxi driver with real money. Most taxi drivers in my country are poor. I promised myself that I would not do that anymore. My clumsiness should not make other people suffer. :) That time I was in a hurry and didn't have time to look for an ATM. I am sorry, Mr. Taxi Driver. You are so good, nice, and friendly. So typical Indonesian!
Anyway, it was a funny experience in life.
