Do what you want. Be kind. Build resilient communities.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am down to host awesome visitors from all over the world. I want to meet you and hang out with you and listen to all of your stories. I will also be traveling around a lot in my life (once my funds are in order) and I hope to spend nights on other's couches.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've slept on the couch/floor in apartments in Michigan, New Orleans, Italy, and Paris. I've hosted a few fellows here and there. Every time has been positive. Can't wait for more.
