我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Have informally couch surfed before and am excited about getting into the community after having heard about from fellow travelers in Laos and neighbors back in Brooklyn

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have loved informal couch (and floor) surfing from Berlin to Beijing and have done it CS and HC (Hospitality Club) style in Mexico (Baja California and Chiapas) and in Brazil. I've had Brazilian, Polish, and Italian surfers stay over.
