Why I'm on Couchsurfing

I love this network where we can meet many people from all different places and get to know a bit about their culture. Also, I've learned a lot about not judging people based on their nationalities and respect their customs. It's amazing to meet people who have totally different life style, comparing to mine. CS has helped me to open my mind in such an amazing way, that since I started using it, as a guest, I've felt myself a better human being, a much more mature woman and a smarter person! I'm so grateful to CS for that! Couchsurfing is the best invention, in my opinion. As a guest, I don't use it to save money whatsoever! I could afford a hostel or a hotel, but the experience of being hosted by a local and learn about their culture is just PRICELESS! No money in the world can buy the rich knowledge we get when we go couchsurfing! I love it! That's why I always use CS when I travel!

My Interests

Meeting people from different places. Knowing places everywhere and traveling a lot. Sightseeing and taking thousand pics. Interacting with the hosts and guests, as CS experience is about that! I love socializing with the guests and hosts, because I learn a lot about the place and the guest and host´s experiences in life.
