Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm going to be taking a year off from work/school to experience the world. Hoping to spend several months traveling abroad, and I hear that couch surfing is one of the best ways to meet new people. I like to see the world from a local perspective that is hard to find staying in hotels and hostels.
I have also loved the community of travelers that I have met all over the world and look forward to continuing to meet more fellow travelers and kindred spirits.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I consider myself about as easy-going, but considerate as they come. I also have cheesy jokes and am more than willing to help around the house.
