HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Offer my sofa.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had two couchsurfing guests so far: Maria and Kyra. Two lovely German girls who were a pleasure to host and show around the city.

I have been a couchsurfing guest once in Roztoky - a small town on the outskirts of Prague. We were hosted by two really cool guys for two days who were really very kind.
