Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My philosphy for traveling is to get an authentic picture of the country I am visiting. In my opinion this can only be reached by experiencing how locals live. Couchsurfing seems to be perfect for that ;D During language stays in south africa and japan I lived in hostfamilies to get a really close insight of those countries. And I don´t regret a second of that. It might be challenging at first to deal with an unknown culture, but you are rewarded with a lot of great experiences and memories. I am really looking forward to collect much more of that. And of course, Couchsurfing is very cheap, so it is the perfect form of travelling for a student ^^
