Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been couch surfing pretty much all my life through my network of friends and other travellers, which has enabled me to travel to a lot of places in the world. I have always enjoyed hosting other people in my home, wherever I have lived. Being on CS is therefore a natural extension of that and I am looking forward to many more excellent CS experiences.
