Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Have surfed in Iceland. Would love to host now that I'm without roommates.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Spent two months between hostels and couches on the west coast after highschool. Lots of new friends, learned the ins and outs of the places I was.
Also couchsurfed while in Iceland summer 2010. Used the site both to find travel buddies and for places to stay :)

Interests

Dessert, cooking, food, cheese, pizza.
Oh and then music, and exploring, climbing trees (not very good at it though), making playlists, buying plane tickets on a whim, spending a little bit of money on a lottttt of good stuff.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Driving down over the mountains to the Red Lagoon in the Western Fjords, Iceland just as the summertime sunset light was all around us. The reflections on the lagoon and the light coming over the mountains was amazing.
