I believe that travels are one of the most wonderful life experiences, since they help to explore both my external world and internal feelings and reactions in new unusual situations. And if I go to new places, the best way to get familiar with local customs and habits is to spend time with people who are used to carry this lifestyle. So it's cool to observe, but much cooler - to communicate and exchange cultural backgrounds. Couchsurfing gives a great possibility to practice my views :)
