I have had nothing but amazing couchsurfing experiences so far! I previously had a joint profile: http://couchsurfing.com/people/Camila.y.Belen You can see previous references there :) HOW WE PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING We used CouchSurfing while traveling in Japan. Our hosts were fantastic! We had a great time learning about Japan through these amazing people and now we want to host people at home so we can give them a chance to learn about our country and hopefully learn more about theirs!
