Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met John Melton in ASU/Arizona state University in 1982 for one year of exchange program. He once stopped at my place for a couple of nights. He also recommended me to register in this section. Since then i had hosted many people from different countries and also couched at different countries for many times, some great experience . And i like it , even my wife once complained about that. She can not join with my trip because of the risk of safety involved as she said.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

"It was a shock for me to watch sea water approaching right in front of the door step in Marga place in Sibulan, Philippines. I was terrified that the house will be totally invaded by sea water, and it happened when I arrived in Manila two weeks later. in Jan. 2009. The local people said it never hapened in the past 50 years. the climate warming? That was an unique experience for me after all these years of travelling.
