Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because we believe in the philosophy behind this system. It's a great way to share and know different cultures and learn about it, to meet people, find different ways to visit cities, share with locals to understand the culture of each place.

To enjoy our trips and lifes with other travelers souls.
