Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing will allow me to immerse deeply into the culture, live locally, have a deeper understanding of an area/city/town, etc, meet people, build bonds, share knowledge, learn from host(s)/environment. It's important for me to attempt to understand the culture and traditions of the people I meet and places I go. My efforts aren't to save money, it's about the people and experience.
