I love to learn from other cultures, what do they do, and why.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have had visitors to my house many times. It is really fun, almost like traveling again, except the travelers came to me. The last two who visited made me some really good food! Amazing cooks. I invited two friends over and we had an amazing meal.

Last episode was amzing, meet them on a ferry, 12 people needed a place to stay- so they borrowed my house, and then I took them out on a sailtrip the next day. It was really fun!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
A friend of mine asked me if I had room for two people. They were leaving by plain the next day, and sense I lived close to the airport, my place would be a perfect spot. It was really nice, almost like being on the road again my self. Learning about new cultures and language right there in my living room. I asked some friends over and we made dinner together. It was really nice! So that's how I heard about couch surfing.

After that, two more people staid for a day on my extra bedroom. So much fun with new found friends.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was so impressed of the size of grand canyon, is huge. Yellowstone was also amazing. Old faithful was there of course. White Island in the philippines, and big shells living just 2-3 meters deep. I couch surfed in solomon Island, out in the jungle. No electricity, no water inside. But still so conferrable. I really wished we could have staid there longer.

The salomon Islands, is amazing, go see the western province.

Teach, Learn, Share

I always love to learn, if you have not heard of edx.org you should check it out. Also Khan academy, is worth a visit.
