I tend to travel mostly alone, so CS is a great way to connect with locals and gain insights into the place from the perspective of someone living there. I'm also an open person who's lived in several countries and traveled widely, so meeting new people and sharing stories comes naturally to me. Despite this, I'm actually pretty late to the CS game and only started using it in 2019. I've been really touched by the generosity of the hosts I've stayed with and I hope to return the favor.

I went to Sri Lanka by myself for 3 weeks on short notice without planing an itinerary in advance, which was a crazy thing for me but turned out amazing.
