Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I enjoy hosting people to repay all the hospitality I've received in the past!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In 2004-05 I spent a year bicycling around North America and stayed with lots of friends and relatives I hadn't seen in years, as well as some strangers. I don't think I slept on any actual couches, though -- most had spare beds.
