Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surf and Host.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I used to be very active surfing and hosting for years around North America and Europe and made many friendships. I have been offline for a few years and am looking forward to getting back into it.

My mom and I couch surfed from Tennessee to Olympia, Washington in 2007 on our way to The Evergreen State College, which happened to be her first time couch-surfing -- she loved it.
