Why I'm on Couchsurfing
The incentive for me to join Couchsurfing is to meet fun, local people in the area I am travelling, and get a local's perspective. I will one day be able to offer a place for travellers when I decide to plant myself for some time! That will be a great feeling to give back to all the lovely people who have already been wonderful hosts.
