PHILOSOPHY

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted amazing people for years, and enjoy surfing as well.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've met some real characters out there, and some incredible friends too. Nothing bad to report.

Interests

I like getting lost; in new cities, people, conversations. I like being surprised, no I love being surprised. I love to ride my bike, and I read a lot. I really love being taught things about the way people think. Honesty is fascinating to me.
