Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted Pierre in the middle of his photographic journey through US in the footsteps of Jack Kerouac.

Tim saved my boyfriend and I from sleeping on the Paris metro in the middle of a very complicated Spring Break week.

Katy and her friend stayed at Doug's place (which is de facto mine since I'm always there) on the first leg of their summer concert trip.
