Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Because hotels are impersonal and because i haven't tried this before. Couch surfing makes it possible to meet people that i otherwise would not have. Meeting people makes my world bigger and my perspective broader - I get a lot out of discovering the nuanced perspectives of other people.
