Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have heard alot about this community and I would like to offer my home to anyone who would like to stay. I feel that we all should have the opportunity to travel and see this beautiful planet while making many amazing friends along the way.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

April 2012

I am now ready to travel across some Countries in Europe after spending 5 weeks in Barcelona , Spain taking NUDE MODEL Art Classes. My original plan was to stay in Barcelona for 9 weeks but the DESIRE to travel and see more of this amazing world has taken over and I just "HAVE TO" Fulfill this desire and once again live in the moment.

I have met alot of great CS people here and one has become my flatmate and a life long friend.

Thanks BARCELONA for awesome memories , I will return again someday real soon to continue my Art Studies and Maybe, Just Maybe Find LOVE once again in the arms of PASSION ;)

Salud !!

NOVEMBER 2010:

Australia was amazing and I can't wait to return again one day soon. All my hosts were terrific and I was shown a great time by all. Their knowledge of the area helped me with my trip planning and made for a very enjoyable experience. Thank You to all my AUSSIE hosts for making my Downunder experience a truly awesome experience that I will cherish forever !!!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

December 2000
Cruised the Yasawa Islands in Fiji and visited a Traditional Fijian Village where the tribe lives primatively off the land. Very beautiful and peaceful experience to see such simplicity in today's World.

October 2010
While snorkelling the Great Barrier Reef off the coast of Cairns,Australia I saw a White Tipped Reef Shark and was able to photograph it with an underwater camera .... It was only a few feet away!!! Such a thrill to see that up close ... One truly very amazing experience!!!

What I Can Share with Hosts

February 2018

I am able to host for one or two nights during the weekdays (usually Tuesday to Thursday at this time). I can only accommodate 1 person as I have a small apartment.

I am located along Knight Street bus route 22 . With connections to bus numbers 100 for either the Marine Drive Canada Line Station or to connect with the 22nd Street Skytrain Station. Fraser River hiking trails are close by.

Happy Travels Everyone :)
