Meeting (foreign) people is always interesting and by showing other people your part of the world makes one look different or more closely to it so that one can experience certain elements and aspects like never before.
Besides that, when going abroad couchsurfing looks like a nice way of meeting locals and getting inside information.
If visits lead to a lively network of contacts than that's a very welcome side effect.

In return for a couch or a bed somewhere, I would gladly help around the house or make dinner, no casualties from food poisoning among my friends up until now, or something else and if visitors like to express their eternal gratitude to me, they can always get me some plants, feel free.

PHILOSOPHY

.
I believe in doubt.
I try to follow the way of the Buddha through quantum physics and relativity.
Perfection is not of this world.
No parking on the dancefloor
Every day is a gift, even if it just brings a pair of old socks
Every human being is as a small pebble in a bag full of pebbles. The more the pebble has contact with the others, the more it will lose its sharp edges.

教，学，和分享

I don't know if I should mention this but I took lessons in anthropology for two years as a free student while doing my steady lectures of Architecture. As a result I have a healthy interest in people’s lives and actions. No need to worry, for being watched or treated as a Guiney pig, though. I’m very discreet at it :)
