Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'd like to see the world from a more personal view, through the lens of people who live in those particular areas. Staying in an individual's home rather than a hotel or hostel is an entirely different experience.
Plus the cost-efficiency is quite the benefit. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
In Madrid I bought a 1/2 kilo cookies from the back door of a convent in an alleyway. But they really were cookies and they really were from a nun, despite the misleading plastic bag which contained them.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I'm really low-maintenance, and enjoy learning from/about other people. No need to worry about a lack of cleanliness -- I'd even do the dishes if you'd let me.
