**** ALSO SEEKING ROOMMATE FOR THE REST OF THE MONTH OF JULY. GREAT OPTION IF YOU ARE JUST NOW MOVING TO AUSTIN AND NEED A PLACE TO STAY. MONTHLY RENT IS $550 AND WILL BE PRO-RATED ACCORDING TO MOVE IN DATE *** In regards to couch surfing requests, I have a huge comfortable house with three private rooms for you to choose from and your own bed and bath close to downtown. The problem is that I am getting many impersonal requests from people who seem to be new at CS, and many have no references. If you have no references, then I want you to have the security option on your profile. I will likely host you if you can send me a friendly and less demanding or impersonal request. I have been doing this for 11 years as both a host and surfer and this is a wonderful service to for us but it is good to be kind, humble, and respectful to show you are serious and not a moocher.

ABOUT ME

I have just returned to America after living abroad for the past 10 years. I lived in Prague for 5 years and Tbilisi, Republic of Georgia for 5 years. I am having culture shock and trouble reintegrating here in the States and CS will help bring back my past. I love to travel and meet new people- typical CS statement. I am a victim of wanderlust and cannot seem to stay in one place. More than anything, I love to dance the night away! I want my life to be an adventure, and to experience as much as possible. I am not afraid to fail or make mistakes in which I can learn from. I love to go dancing or to any cool Austin events. I am a somewhat native Austinite. I have lived here for 14 years of my life.

PHILOSOPHY

Do what pleases you, not what you feel that society expects.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have been hosting so many wonderful friends from all walks of life.

I am now living 15 minutes from downtown in Central Austin close to public transport or a cheap fasten ride to down town or the airport.I would love to show you around Austin if I have time. I always look for someone to go to my retro club on Thursday or Friday night or Motown Mondays. As seen above, I am also looking for a roommate for temporarily stay with me until my lease is up August 1. Rent is $550 for smaller room $660 larger room. Both with private bath.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have 11 years of CS experience, and I have met some amazing people from all cultures enabling me to continue my global education. I was mostly active when I lived in Prague.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Where would I begin! I probably couldn't share these things publicly! Prague castle is probably still the one of the most beautiful sights that I have seen and it is just a few blocks from my flat! I am lucky! I guess that most of the happiest moments of my life have been during my travels.

Would love to practice Russian, Czech, or French with a CSER so I do not lose my language skills.
