:::TIMELINE:::

Now until 1st of May
- road tripping from lower 48 to Denali National Park, Alaska through Canada. If we have space in the car/trailer, you're welcome to join (but gas money is our priority).

1st May - 19th May
I'll be hanging around Alaska somewhere (within earshot of the Parks Highway), penniless and happy! :)

20th May - 1 October
- available to host in my REALLY SMALL and REALLY COZY cabin.

:::MY "COUCH":::
Now
a 14 foot swift trailer with room for 4 to sleep, kitchen, bathroom, etc.

1st May - 19th May
black spruce

after the 20th May
I'll take photos once I get there :)I'll be living in a tiny one room cabin, which means you'll hear me snoring. Bring ear plugs (or your TENT to CAMP in the NATURE, like you're expected to do!). Since it's a one room cabin, if there isn't enough space on the floor or if I don't have a couch, we'll share the bed (bring your sleeping bag!). The bathroom and kitchen is shared among my fellow employees of the coffee shop where I work. You will meet everyone; otherwise, they'll wonder what the hell you're doing in my damn cabin! :)))))


:::CAMPING:::

If you're planning on doing a lot of camping, but have too much stuff to carry around, you can use my cabin as a basecamp to store your stuff. Since I can't give you a key to my cabin, you can't access my cabin unless I am there.

One Amazing Thing I've Seen or Done

Opinion on the CouchSurfing.org Project

I'm a human bean who loves other human beans. Couchsurfing is a great way to meet other beans who grew up on different beanstalks.

What do these numbers mean?

This summary is not a replacement for reading references; it's a quick summary to help you get started. At a glance, you can see how many references a member has, and how many of them are positive, neutral, and negative.

In the second line, you'll see how many references came from people who hosted this member, surfed with them, and traveled with them. These numbers won't always add up to the total: some references are not categorized, and some may be categorized as more than one thing.

When viewing this summary, don't jump to conclusions! Things that are negative for one person may be positive for another, and vice versa. It's important to read references carefully and evaluate what that information means to you.

It was really great to meet Anthony. He rolled up with an awesome trailer owned by his awesome traveling buddy Chrystal. Both of them were so much fun and even though they slept out in the trailer parked at the curb they hung out in the house to quite a bit, which included but was not limited to making delicious food, pulling weeds in the garden and making music. Thanks for stopping by and hope to see you at the end of the season!

Anthony was wonderful to chat with. I'm brand new to this site and he welcomed me in as if we were old friends. His travel stories are great and he even gave me a reference of a friend of his for an upcoming trip I have planned.

He is open minded and outspoken. Very friendly and activist, as well. He is addicted on hitchiking as I do and I'm sure we'll meet him somewhere and hitchwiki will mention about it :)

Anthony is a charming guy, too bad we didnt had the chance to meet again on the road.

to clear Anthonys reference:
When we first met I wrote this: How I learned to love to the bomb or how to open a bottle of wine with a tree ...

Anthony surfed our couch when we hosted a hitchhiker's party at our place. We didn't know him before, but instantly connected and share many similar thoughts. He became a good friend in such a short time, hopefully we meet again soon! Love you, you're an amazingly warm-hearted person :)

You look pretty sexy with your trombone. Thanks ever so much for the wonderful hours and your glancing eyes while talking about life, music, solipism and odd shaped hydrants. You really deserve the travelling musician status.

With Anthony I had my first hosting experience. If you are looking for an interesting, easygoing guy to spend good times with, he's definately your man! And great help to bake a cheesecake in the middle of the night :)

Anthony, it was a pleasure meeting you and I wish you all the best for your travelling! If you ever come to Hamburg again, you're welcome anytime :)
Or maybe we meet again in Alaska, who knows.. ;)
