ABOUT ME

Hi
I live in Berlin. I love the city and if I have time I'd gladly show anyone around my favourite places.

I am a writer/journo currently promoting my debut novel. This is my website http://www.willfurtado.com

PHILOSOPHY

Share the knowledge; share the privilege.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I first heard about CS through a friend and have hosted many people since 2011 and made good friends. I think this is a great opportunity to experience other people's ways of life first hand, not just look at it. CS is the difference between seeing the world and looking at the world. But I don't also mind just helping someone spare some notes..so feel free to be honest.

兴趣
