Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The best way to get to know a place is to get to know the people that call it home. Whenever I am in a new place, I try to meet locals, not only to make a couple new friends and social connections but also to soak up some of their invaluable knowledge about the area I am currently exploring. I think couchsurfing is an almost flawless way to do both these things. Staying with cool people who are open to new ideas and new friends sounds like a very smart thing to do. Also trying my hand at hosting. I’d love to give back while I have the means to do so.
