I am on Couchsurfing because I think it is such an interesting way to experience another culture. I believe the concept of living with locals gives you a far better idea of the people living in this country. Since i was little my family and I have often stayed with friends' friends or acquaintances - not only is it at way of saving money, it is also a gift if you are interested in the culture.

I once helped organise an entire musical at my school. The cool thing was that there were no teachers to help us, so a few of us students decided to do it on our own, and people loved it. And I love planning events and starting different projects, so this was a very nice experience.
