Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Love hanging out having a conversation (ask me about cities and I might not ever stop talking, ha). I love exploring, cooking, finding dancing or live music. I'm way less into touristy things and more into just being in the present and seeing what adventures and people come my way.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have surfed frequently during these past 5 months of traveling throughout UK and Europe. So amazing to me the hospitality and friendship people in the world are willing to offer. People were so worried when I left and everyone told me not to trust strangers, but I knew better :) Trusting strangers has been the best thing to happen on this journey.
