HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I think it’s great to be able to join this network. Each time that I’ve lodged someone in my house (that has never happened through internet) it has been a very good experience. It has allowed us not only to help people to travel cheap, but also to share good moments and get to know different cultures. We’ve had a great time. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I’ve already lodged travelers at home, two Mexican students that I met in Berlin’s streets and also two Brazilians who travelled through Europe. When I travel I never stay in a hotel. That’s too expensive and I think it’s not that nice. I mean, when I travel I really want to get to know the residents and the local habits, things that I won’t do that much if I stay in a hotel.
