Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I met some nice couch surfers in Mexico City who got me interested in the idea. I approve of the clever use of the internet to meet new friends in strange places. The opportunity for strangers to meet and to share with each other to the benefit of all is inspiring. I live in a beautiful place and have extra space.
