Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I hosted few people and try to encourage my friends to host or travel themselves. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I met a lot of interesting people that showed me around their city and introduced me to their friends. Without that I imagine some of my stays would have been boring

One Amazing Thing I've Done
Driving a motorcycle from Ho-Chi-Minh to the Mekong Delta and back. The scenery was awesome and the people delightful... and there's something zen about being able to ignore an 18-wheeler zooming-by a couple of feet away.
