Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Travelled a lot using informal networks to stay with locals..... thought I would extend the favour as I hate wasting space! Last person to stay was a pro-mountain biker who put me in the shade up the mountains here! Check his blog on the Tour de Timor if you want someone else's opinion and a cool review of the best bike event going around......http://www.corywallace.com
