Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm currently living with my parents, so no overnight hosting, but I have a great knowledge of fun things to do around Sebastopol/Sonoma County and would love to show people around. I also can't wait to try couchsurfing when I'm travelling.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've stayed with strangers who have picked me up hitchhiking and had only the most positive experiences, but there is greater risk involved with no accountability. I'm thrilled to try using the website to meet people.

Interests

Anything outside(hiking, climbing, backpacking, kayaking, biking, gardening, etc...). I'm interested in pretty much everything actually...but I think most often about how I can help contribute to the global community; I think a lot about global poverty and politics and what problems exist and how they could be solved.
