Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted many CS in Prague. We were 6 flatmates (9 counting if our couples sleept with us) and we were all couch surfers.

Unfortunately in Valencia i could not host but I created a space where i share with people cinema sessions, I make exhibitions and concerts. All organiced in my terrace.

In Berlin I couldn't offer anything because I shared a small room with my boyfriend, but I recently got a one room apartment so I could host again after my South America trip.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw a men walking with a puma in czech republic. His name was Miky

It normally doesn´t freeze a lot in my city (Zaragoza), but i remember once it was very cold. I started to trhow buckets of water in the terrace and soon i made a ice-skating rink. Then i invited my friends to have some fun sliding there.

Two years ago i discovered that the snow flakes have this geometrical shape, i always though it was only visible trough the microscope.

I made a part of the Camino de Santiago from Burgos to León. Great experience!
