Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
A friend recommended me to join couchsurfing when I went to visit her. She told me it is a nice way to meet people and make friends when I shared my experience of travelling in these years-making less friends than before. Therefore, I join and want to meet more people.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Before joining couchsurfing, I already have some couchsurfing experiences. Most of them were staying in friends' houses. Sometimes, it was totally the kindness of local people who accepted me when I couldn't find a place to live. The fisrt unplaned couchsurfing was in Japan when I was stuck in s storm and couldn't take the train to the place where I planed to stay. A Japanese girl sat beside me provide her flat to stay overnight. I felt warm becasue of a stranger's kindness. We kept in touch for a few years. It is a nice experience.

Teach, Learn, Share
In some point, I am open-minded person who wants to learn or absorb as more as I can. Therefore, I like to meet all different kinds of person. Like one of our ancient philosophier said, "there must have one who can be my teacher in a group of three persons" I believe that you can learn something from every person if you pay attention and keep your mind open. Hope you will find something that you can learn from me.
