In my opinion, couchsurfing is the perfect way to travel on budget and meeting new people all over the world. Instead of just go sightseeing, you can really experience the different cultures and you get to know the real city not the touristic version. It is also perfect to make new and dear friends and to just have an amazing time with some locals.

One amazing adventure was a two-day hiking trip through the jungle of Northern Thailand to an abandoned mountain village. On our way up to the mountains we saw wild elephants, bathed in waterfalls and experienced pour nature. We stayed for one night at the village, cooked with the inhabitants on a fire place, ate and talked under the stars. It was an incredible night!
