HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I have just signed up to couch surfing in response to the terrible disasters currently plaguing Japan. I joined to give any displaced Japanese people a temporary roof over their heads. I really like the idea of this website and hope to keep it hosting and surfing after I get back to the United States this summer. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I have surfed many a couch, but never through this website. I have also opened my couch up to many of my friends. I hope to continue this tradition until I am ancient and the old folks home says I can't have visitors anymore.

Too varied to write here (or mayhaps I am just lazy) ask me about it in person!
