Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We participate hosting people and giving advices to people who come at our place. we also can share with our hosts experience and do some thing together. If we have time enough we all can go together to the mountains.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Before to become a member of CouchSurfing we hosted a couple from Australia and another couple from Czech Republic.
The experience was fantastic, we all learned a lot from each other and we share very good times.

After becoming a member of CS we have been hosting and surfing with great experiences and feelings.

Music, Movies, and Books

There are too many books, music and movies to write it down in this section. It is better to come to our place and talk about them.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Build a chocolate brand from scratch and winning several international chocolate prizes. We own now as a hobby a chocolate workshop where we make chocolate bars and drinking hot chocolate from the cocoa beans. It's a very interesting trip to go...

Teach, Learn, Share

We think that every people can learn, teach and share from/to others. Everyone is absolutely interesting and with a personal background that can be mixed with others' background to get a different point of view of life. It is just that we all have to spend some time with others and not be all the time in a hurry...

What I Can Share with Hosts

We can share good stories, good time, a meal from our country... and we can bring some of our chocolate, if the weather is not too hot to carry it with us.
