Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have not had any official couchsurfing experiences, but on different occasions I have been both a host and a surfer. I find couchsurfing a great network and great way of travelling, because you experience living as a local on a particular location.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I haven˙t really been travelling through and into the wilderness, but I was amazed by the beautiful nature of the Alps.

I am always impressed by the huge museums and art collections - Prado (Madrid), Vatican Museums, Museuminsel (Berlin), British Museum (London). For an art lover, they are the most impressive part of the trip.
