 |  World Backpacking & CouchSurfing
I'm going to be traveling to London, then some parts of UK and Europe, then Australia - then wherever! I'm looking to see if anybody would care to meet up or lend a couch while I travel. Would even love to have a get together with a bunch of locals to have fun and share in the personal development! I'm 22 and just going to be backpacking, and I'm open to meet all you PD people around the world. Let me know if you're interested! PS. I'm on the CS site: https://www.couchsurfing.org/people/andrewfitz/

I would gladly welcome you on my "couch" in Bucharest, Romania, if you ever wonder out in these parts  I love the idea of couchsurfing (I met some dudes in NY who were into it) but I never looked it up cause I haven't been traveling too much so far. But it seems like a really good idea for meeting interesting people. I'm also 22 and as soon as I have the money, I think I'll go for a trip around the US cause I loved it so much when I was there. Or maybe a tour of Europe first. Right now I'm going to France with a friend, for a 2 weeks trip which will probably consist of mostly Paris and a few other big cities.

That's awfully kind of you, thank you! I have no idea where I'll end up, so I just might  Where around the US were you planning? Did you visit other places besides NY?

I would like to personally vouch for Andrew, and let you know that if you have him stay on your couch, you will enjoy his company very much, I think! He is ultra-intelligent, he's a master of some very interesting and helpful practices, very loving guy, and he is a boatload of fun. Cute, too!

Awe, well thank you very much Angela! I can say the same for her, a very good person with a lot to contribute... even though she isn't looking to couch surf

I met him for dinner once, and it was quite interesting and enjoyable dinner. Andrew: that sounds great what you're doing, I wish I was doing that too. Maybe I'll do that later .

| Going to Brussels?
From belgium (brussels) here. Although I'd have to talk with my husband about you staying over, I can always meet for diner and show you around town a bit. Let me know if and when you are coming this way! Sandra ps, if you are in this area anyway... skip paris, but spend lots of time in Amsterdam!!

I stayed near Cleveland, Ohio for 3 months, and 4 days in NY, and 2 in Philadelphia. I also went to Niagara Falls, but that's about it. I definitely want to see many more big cities, as well as small ones and sea resorts and other places And I want to attend some interesting courses and seminars.

Change of plans... if you are going to MEXICO (mexico city) you are welcome! I can show you around at least. Not sure about staying since we will be staying at my family-in-law for a while. Quote:

I'm in a town outside of Vancouver, Canada. If you around during the 2010 Winter Olympics then I'll have a couch available. After that I'm couchsurfing/hitchhiking my way down to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico with my Korean girlfriend and you're welcome to join us.

Well, I certainly don't live in any exotic location (I live in a backwoods hicktown near DC), but I'll do you one better than everyone here... You ever come through my area, you can have my BED because I always sleep on the couch.
