Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I try to host when I'm not travelling!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Have had many couchsurfing experiences, all of which have been worth my while on this planet. It has shown me that the only thing separating us all is the borders we have divided ourselves with. My belief and experience has shown me that there is a hospitable side in each of us that is caring and nurturing. Couchsurfing can restore this for anyone and make one develop a true sense of gratefulness.

Teach, Learn, Share
To share experiences as they come along is the best. Knowing that when you're old, you can someday look back in your mind and remember all the great people of the world.. its great and really hope to make more memories with everyone.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I will try to share food and my stories, hope that is enough for you. :)
