Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Though I havent had the opportunity of hosting people yet I have enjoyed meeting up with travellers and locals alike for coffee or for sharing a meal or two... I ended up making a couple of really good friends!!!!

In Spain I had the opportunity of being hosted by 3 very wonderful people and I came to really appreciate the CS initiative!!! I am eager now to give back to the community the generosity that I have received!!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have enjoyed meeting people from all walks of life...from video game designing anthropologists to ecologists...

I also experienced the generosity of spirit and universalism of strangers who I now hold dear... these people who have hosted me have made me realise that CS is more than just providing a roof over someones head...its about sharing experiences and lives... :)

I spend my time watching obscure, hilarious or fantastical movies.. not neccessarily in that order.. or you will find me immersed in books or scouting the net for the next travel opportunity!
