Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i am slow. i am tentative. it takes me a long time to get into things. this makes me a bad traveller in many ways. i thrive in the presence of people who get me, and who i get. we're just sometimes not good at meeting each other.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

only friends. mostly good, though a few friends have been scammed a number of times... i'm wary.
