The world's full of great places and good stories. Wether with food and old friends or in a stranger's living room, there's always something to learn.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I first couchsurfed during a road trip through New Orleans when I was 19, and I had an incredible experience. In my travels since, I've learned that there's no better way to experience a new place than befriending someone who lovingly calls that place "home." Whether I'm on the road or welcoming a fellow surfer, couchsurfing is the way to go. It's economical and makes the experience all the more memorable.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
