HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Not currently hosting. Occasional surfing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

First surfer was Ayse from Germany! Wonderful experience.

Surfed in Houston with Jessica. It was fantastic. Spoke Spanish, drank Mexican beers, and danced Salsa at the Houston CS meet up. Ate an ORANGE off of a TREE!! WA! Had never done that before... it was delicious!

Surfed in San Jose, Costa Rica with Brandon and his amazing beautiful dancer of a boyfriend! Amazing hosts!

Hamaca Surfed in Montezuma, Costa Rica for a week with jugglers of machetes and fire from the San Jose cirucs scene! Met them on the boat and asked to put hammocks in their yard. It was the best! They were like family.

Surfed a night in San Juan del Sur Nicaragua with some friends I made traveling.

Many more surf sessions have happened since this section was updated. Lovin' it!
