ABOUT ME

If you're gonna skate on thin ice you might as well dance....

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I tell everyone I met about it. It's amazing how many quizzical looks you get, but the one's who get it just smile and grin. I've been hosting quit a bit . Found out my house can actually hold up to 4 if I have to, more if you stack them right.
