Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Weekly "Le Jardin" supporter and occasional Hong Kong tour guide...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Stayed with a brilliant host who made me fall in love with NYC.

Interests

Meeting people from different backgrounds, with different experiences, interests, opinions, etc.

Running, swimming, hiking, scuba-diving and snowboarding, although I could never resist the temptation to try out new things while on holiday.

Otherwise a good read, interesting conversations, movies/plays or some good music...
