Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Have hosted many travellers, but not through the official couchsurf website, and I'm no stranger to the couch of new-friends either!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am new to couchsurfing but have been recommended it by many travelling friends, and have often hosted travelers at home.

Interests

Back at home I spend all my free time playing my trumpet, or following music. I'm interested in all cultural spinoffs, art, film, history and books. when travelling I still try and follow these things.
