Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I met a Japanese guy once while riding my bike in LA. Turns out he was just starting out on a bike ride across the US. He was looking for a cheap motel and I was like, "why don't you just stay with me", which he did. Yuto, was a swell guy who honored me by eating all of the giant breakfast I got for him to get him started on his adventure and made me a swell paper crane. Though we did not meet on this site I think that is the spirit of couch surfing should be.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I like people who can show me the individual slices of themselves, in action, in things they like, and the places they think are neat.
