Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For eight months, after I came back from one year in India, I have been surfing on loads of couches and beds of friends and family.

To offer a couch is not so easy for me now, because we already are 4 house mates, plus 2 children occasionally. Friends of house mates and friends of friends regularly land here, and that's enough for now.

But if you want it, I have experience to share and hands to help.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

With my homelessing around for months, surfing on couches and beds of friends, friends of friends and family, I've build a great enjoyable memory of being hosted.
I'm quite experienced in being social but not invasive, grateful but not dependant.
