Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Few of my friends are couch surfing; I spoke with them about couch surfing and met their couch surfing guests and loved the idea of hosting people from different parts of the world and having an opportunity to connect with them

Since I love deep conversations and learning different cultures/customs excites me, couch surfing provides a perfect platform for it

Also, I love the idea of introducing my hosts to local places, show them around and having a nice time explaining my understanding of the place I live at or have lived at - which would include the local culture, language, customs, society, people and their mindset, local food, etc.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - what is this music I don't know
Movies - drama movies, documentaries, and comedy movies (Leslie Nielsen!) Recently, I found Unbelievable (Netflix), Chernobyl (HBO) to be gems. (I would have to update this later)
Books - usually non-fiction psychology books, fiction if the characters act realistically. Recently, Man's Search for Meaning (Viktor Frankl), and Thinking, Fast and Slow (Daniel Kahneman) stood out. (I would have to update this later, too)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Anything that can be found in my room except my toothbrush and underwear?
