Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Alex hasn't surfed himself yet, but has hosted many people. He loves chats and bants with folks from all over the world and is happy to offer travellers a place to crash.

Sara used to surf a lot, but is now too broke to travel, so she'd like to invite the travel vibe into her home instead.

Music, Movies, and Books

Alex: Indiey, rocky, acousticy mellowy upbeaty types of music stuuuff. I'm a minor superhero and sci-fi nerd, but love films of all genres.

Sara: Die Hard. Alex really likes Die Hard, I'd know. I love all the indie music, especially, Britpop. Cutesy indie films with good soundtracks like 500 Days of Summer or Submarine. And Star Wars. I love Star Wars! Books by Haruki Murakami, Matt Ruff and Rocko Schamoni.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Alex: Lost a fight with a camel. He started it.

Sara: I used to host a radio show, so that was pretty amazing, for me, not for anyone else. But I like to think I'm the next John Peel.

Teach, Learn, Share

Alex: I can teach you how to forget to play wonderwall on the guitar, and all about how viruses work.

Sara: I love baking and cooking, so I can teach/share recipes. I'm also always eager to learn new vegetarian/vegan dishes. I also speak German, so I could teach you some helpful phrases like: Ein Bier, bitte!
