Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I joined in May 2010 when one of my friends suggested CS and have had an amazing experience. My summer stay in Netherlands was very enjoyable because of the lovely friends I made through CS. Didn't find much time while in India because of my college studies but plan to socialize a lot more now that I have graduated. Moving to New Zealand soon where I get to meet interesting new CS friends! COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Attended several CS meetings and gatherings in Rotterdam where I met people from all over. My Friday evenings used to be booked exclusively for CS weekly. We also enjoyed barbecues and city walking on weekends.
