Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well, at the moment, all I've really done to participate is join this site. I thought, "Hey, I'll get verified!" but that costs more money than I have.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When I was nine, my family lived in Poland. Since we were in Europe, and it's great there, we did a lot of traveling by train. At the train stations, there would be people there holding a sign (I don't remember what it said now). They would take you to their house and put you up for the night. I think that's my earliest memory of couchsurfing.

Interests

Everything. Seriously. I'll try just about anything at least once as long as I think that I physically can. At the moment I really want to try glass blowing. I love to cook and make my own food. I make seitan, tofu, pasta, cheese you get the idea. It amazes me that people buy so much pre-made food when it is so much fun to make. I love traveling and camping although I haven't been able to travel very far in a couple years. That's going to change soon.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like old music. I collect 78's, my collection goes back to the '40's. I really like music from nearly every genre. The same goes for books and movies. I like to read fiction, non-fiction, mysteries, etc. although fantasy is my favorite in books and movies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I rode a freight train once. Not very far, but I got on rode a little way and jumped off.
