Couch Surfing, Shane, and Goodbyes

It's Shane's last night tonight, and I have to say that I'm half sorry to see him go. We've had SO much fun together the past couple of weeks, and from surfing in Baler to clubbing in Manor, it's just been a wild, sexy ride. All the girls would be drooling with envy knowing that I had this gorgeous surfer guy all to myself for 2 whole weeks. (I'd post a picture but hey, part of the fun is keeping all my readers guessing, haha.)

I knew couch surfing would lead me to meeting some interesting people, and I totally recommend it to anyone who's interested! ;) For those unfamiliar with it, it's all about sharing your culture and offering your couch (generally for free, though some hosts accept a small donation), for a week or two to a foreigner. If you're a guest, you're obligated to be neat, polite, and engaging. (No emo folks need apply!) If you're a host, you should be accommodating, polite, and generally you shouldn't try to take advantage of your guests in any way (unless they want you to, *wink wink*).

I would never take advantage of any of my guests, of course, but I will say that being a couch surfing host has let me tick off more than a few countries off my "list". ;)

It's kinda like bingo... do I get a prize if I get 5 in a row? :D

Well, I should probably stop blogging now. Shane and I are going to grab a later dinner then back to my place for packing and... other things. ;)
