Couchsurfing is a small part of my lifelong pursuit of interesting, unique experiences which result in exchanges of something wonderful between different types of people.

As for the CSers I host, I appreciate tidy guests who are punctual and communicate clearly. I'm happy to share my advice about local sites, but won't always be able to join you. I always try to have at least one meal with my guests, however, and introduce my local friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've met lots of CSers out and about in Korea, Georgia, and China, and many of my friends use CS frequently during their travels. CS has given me a lot, and has introduced me to some pretty amazing people and ideas.
