Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Right now we are hoping to meet interesting people and learn more about the places we are visiting. In the future, once we are back home, we would be delighted to share our coach, culture, and city with fellow travelers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have had two amazing experiences couch surfing. Once in Quito, Ecuador and again in Bogota, Colombia. Both hosts were wonderful, showed us a lot of the city, and made us feel completely at home. Look forward to being able to host guests when we return home.
