我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I used Couchsurfing only once in Kyoto, and i had the best experience ever. I think it's an amazing platform to connect the international travelling community, especially for solo travellers. The website concept encourages friendship, sharing, exchange and community. I am currently looking to make new friends and contacts within the international travelling community and when i am settled i look forward to being a host as well. thanks!
