Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Since joining in April 2012 we've hosted well over 100 guests and we have been hosted all over the world: Vietnam, India, South Korea, Japan, Jordan, Israel, Morocco, Ireland. We've thoroughly enjoyed the experience, gotten to know some amazing people and have made more than a few life-long friends.

Interests

Travel, travel, travel (you get the idea).
Photography.
Folkdancing (Scandinavian and Balkan) and reading when we're not travelling.
