COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been hosting for a while, and it's been wonderful. All my guests have been so nice and polite, of course you are going to have your favorite ones, but each of them have been a really profitable and learning experience. I would recommend it to anybody. Hope to be hosted in the future, 'till the moment I didn't have the chance.
