Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

The get togethers I've gone to with couchsurfers are always fun and interesting. Everyone shares the same wanderlust and comes with fascinating travel stories and experiences.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Had my first couchsurfing experience at the end of May 2007 in Chi-town. I guess I haven't couchsurfed since then because I've just been staying with friends/family in places. But looking for some couch-love soon. Went to several couchsurfing parties in the DC area and met lots of cool people.

Interests

Running, scuba diving, photography, people, traveling, reading, outdoors, taking advantage of this awesome city, water, food and friends, good conversations, music and most importantly laughter.

Music, Movies, and Books

Love foreign films and documentaries and movies with dry humor. Music - all over the place - but depends on my mood. Classical is always calming. I love non-fiction book, essays or commentary on life. Don't do sci-fi or fantasy. But recently getting more into thriller-type novels.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing is the feeling I get when scuba diving, breathing underwater and experiencing a completely foreign world. It's like being on another planet.

Teach, Learn, Share

Though I haven't been for awhile, I'm a scuba diving and snowboarding enthusiast. Been sky diving a couple times. Ran some marathons. I would love to learn how to breakdance. Or ballet. Or both. At the same time.

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Austria, Belize, Brazil, Cambodia, Canada, China, France, Germany, Greece, Honduras, India, Italy, Laos, Liechtenstein, Malaysia, Mexico, Myanmar, Singapore, Spain, Switzerland, Thailand, Turks and Caicos Islands, United Kingdom, Viet Nam
