Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Meet new people, hear new stories, share experiences.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Went to Sweden with 3 other guys. We stayed with a very nice guy there who showed us Stockholm for a day.

I went to Chico (California) with Daniel, Theresa and Emily for a bikefestival, which was really awesome. Afterwards we couchsurfed in a yurd.

Went to Santa Cruz to go surfing with a couchsurfer, afterwards we slept on the couch of another really friendly guy, Mr. Mark, who showed us Santa Cruz. Made some good friends via couchsurfing in Davis.

Interests

Love travelling. Mostly through Europe so far, but also to the US and Africa.
I love backpacking/hiking and hitchhiking a lot, this has been the core of most of my trips.
