Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is the best! It has saved me so much money and I've met so many interesting people from around the world.

My friend's brother and I drove from New Orleans to the Bay Area in 2008, and then I finished the drive by moving up to Seattle. I couchsurfed in Eugene on the way, and then again for several weeks in Seattle while finding a place.

All of my hosts took care to help me feel comfortable, and I had a lot of fun and saved a lot of money because of them. I still couchsurf, and now I host to pay it forward and to have fun.
