Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I sleep on couches and I let others sleep on my couch. I also try to spread the CS word amongst the people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Over the last few years I have had lots of really good experiences with couchsurfing and they have all been as a guest. Please help me change this! It started with Rachel 3yrs ago in SF. Last year I travelled in Eastern Europe and the Middle East for about 6 months and stayed with many CSers along the way.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Many summer nights in the mountains of British Columbia. Northern Lights in Saskatchewan(the sky is litterally dancing with colours). Spending 18 days biking down the Pacific Coast and living a more primitive life while doing it. Spending 6 months arriving at someone's door a stranger and leaving as a friend.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can tell you about the best place to eat in Montreal. I study political studies so I guess I can teach you some things if it doesn't bore you too much. I would really love you if you teach me how to cook a favorite dish from your home country or a few words from your language.
