我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

We both come from large families so we love to be surrounded by people. During travel we would like to get in touch with locals. We believe that in this way you get to know the country better. While traveling we not only want to visit the tourist spots, but also want to get an idea of ​​how people actually live in a country. We are also very interested in other people's culture, way of thinking and interest. We are open for nice conversations. In this way you learn more and enrich your development.
