Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been planning a trip to Europe, but was worried about where I would stay; I wanted to get to know people and much prefer to stay with friends rather than at hostels. Then my brother told me about his travels abroad couchsurfing, and it seemed like a perfect option for me! So i've never couchsurfed before, but i am looking forward to the camaraderie it has to offer!
