Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I offer a bedroom for 1-2 nights to people who might visit western Massachusetts about 2 hours from Boston in Amherst where the University of Massachusetts is located. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I stayed with 2 lovely families in the United Kingdom who treated us like royalty and it was a great experience. All of my experiences have been excellent.
