ABOUT ME

I love exploring the world - getting to know people and places. I can be shy, but I love to laugh and have real conversations.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Haven't participated as much as I'd have liked, but love it for the joy of meeting people and the affordability. It's a great community. Trying to travel more, and want to host once my living situation makes some more sense.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I stayed with some wonderful people in Paris, hosted a cool guy in London, and otherwise have used it as fuel to remind me that I can travel well - my early traveling life was always staying with family and family friends who I usually didn't know too well, but it was the best, so this is like an extended version of that.
