Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING Host nice people from all around the world in Riga, surf and attend CS events. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE In one word - fantastic! Both surfing and hosting experience was unforgettable and when travelling - spending time with CSers is always the best time spent. Made friends with some of the CSers and we still keep in touch and meet again and again when we visit each other's countries. I enjoy meeting free and open people, getting to know them, learning what is their key to being happy, learn more about new cultures and countries.
