HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I host and surf if possible. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Whenever I travel I try to meet local people and learn as much as it is possible. I hosted and surfed before as a non-couchsurfer. As a (high school) student I lived with russian (once), british (once),american (twice but the same) and french (3 times and everytime different) family.

So many...but as couchsurfing is for people who treat travelling as a lifestyle: don't even start thinking about travelling without reading Ryszard Kapuscinski's or Bruce Chatwin's books and seeing Jim Jarmusch movies. Music is my travel partner.
