Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted a few people when I lived in Spain but unfortunately I had to stop when I got a new roommate who didn't really like the idea. I enjoyed it a lot though and met some really cool people through it! I've also couchsurfed and enjoyed it a lot because I got a local perspective that I might not have gotten otherwise.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Visiting Iguazu Falls, in my opinion one of the most beautiful places on earth; going to Burning Man, and having the most random experiences possible!; experiencing Egypt and learning about its contemporary culture with a few very good Egyptian friends and some family who until recently lived there; climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro even if I ultimately didn't reach the top because of altitude sickness; meeting various half-siblings and my biological father and participating in a documentary about them!; back-packing across the Grand Canyon; and a few other things :-)
