Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I've only hosted since Christmas day 2012 but I'm totally sold on Couchsurfing from the lovely folk I've met so far. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE My first couchsurfer was Lorenzo, an Italian Tassie Devil! He was the perfect first guest and is very passionate about what couchsurfing can achieve in terms of creating opportunities for connection and exchange.I learnt a lot from him and we had heaps of fun. I've since hosted a lovely Argentinian couple who were a pleasure to have around, and their appreciation warmed me thoroughly!
