Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing for a purely selfish reason: it simply feels amazing to help travellers out. I discovered it years ago and since then I had been racking my brains, trying to think of ways in which I could do it on a regular basis. Couchsurfing has given me that opportunity. There are also other, more personal reasons why I'm here, and I'll be more than happy to elaborate when we finally meet.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Since at the moment I live in a small town in Silesia (where there's no need for a host), I concentrate on hanging out with Couchsurfers in Katowice and Kraków. I also like assisting people remotely from my home, providing them with all the necessary information and answering their questions about Poland.
