Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm also exploring the country so can team up or give you some advice from my recent travels.

Anyone looking for 1-2 day stay can count on me as long as I'm not working...I can for sure meet people around town and explore as I haven't done too much of that myself.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had a couple from Holland stay with me while I was in University. We had a great time!
