我为什么使用Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I often use it to make friends in my community locally. I have stayed with one person and had five couch surfers stay with me so far! I've also made several local wonderful friends through CS. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I've met quite a few people couch surfing and I made some good friends. Some were just passing through, but it was good to meet them and learn about their cultures and lives :) I found two of my dearest friends through this site.

我做过的一件令人惊叹的事
Love and wisdom. The most amazing thing I've seen is people loving each other well, with respect, kindness warmth, fun, true friendship and loyalty. I've also found it amazing to see people transforming their lives. I've been all over the world, but the some of the most profound changes have happened in my home or the home of a friend. I could say it was visiting Rwanda, working with grassroots development organizations in Uganda, rafting the Nile or so many other things, but honestly they just don't compare with those love or deep internal changes that can happen in a living room. Though that doesn't mean I just want to stay in my living room :)
