PHILOSOPHY

Never Boring.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used to let people stay at my place all the time...but with an infant in the house, it is not really possible.

My first CS experience: I was out for a bike ride outside of Philadelphia and I met these guys skateboarding from Chicago to NYC. The told me they were going to try to find a place to spend the night on some 'couchsurfing' website, so I invited them to my place...check this blog... http://shredamerica.blogspot.com/2008/07/new-york-closer-now-philly-4th.html or http://shredamericafilm.com/

Anyhow...since then I've traveled using couchsurfing MANY times (once by accident!) and hosted any number of official couchsurfers and look forward to many more, maybe once the kid is out of diapers...
