CouchSurfing in action

For over a year I have been hosting international travelers, First in San Francisco and now in Shanghai. It has always been a pleasure, an adventure and most of all fun. I have met some of the most incredible and can say I have friends all over the world. This week I hosted two people. Amanda is an American living in Vermont so i had a little taste of home, we shared idioms and a yearning for Vermont Cabot extra sharp cheddar cheese. Jelmer is Dutch and has been traveling for several months. he is a biologist and although we only met briefly before I left for Japan I know that he is a wonderful creature. It is a tremendous thing and a way to know the world in a completely different way. Surfs up dude.
