My friends and me already did something like couchsurfing in New Zealand but without being really registered here. We realized that staying at other peoples homes is so much better than staying in a hostel or backpackers if you want to learn something about the country, the people and the culture. I love meeting new people and getting to know new things and couchsurfing is probably one of the best opportunities to do that. Furthermore I heard about amazing stories of people becoming really good friends all over the world. I really like that idea of the world getting connected so I want to be a part of it.

Always hard to pick a "favourite". Too much good stuff :)
