Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a great way to connect travelers with locals. It allows to travel on a low budget while it gives you the opportunity to experience a new culture from the inside.
I'm on couchsurfing to meet interesting, open-minded and open-hearted people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

4 years ago we were staying with Steve for a couple of weeks at his hippie house in Innisfail, Australia. He is such an inspiring and generous man. He helped us finding a job, showed us around untouched nature. We even saw crocodiles and cassowaries just next to us at the beach. He was climbing up palmtrees to get fresh coconuts and at night we were sitting together and listened to him playing the didgeridoo and guitar. This was by far one of the most profound experiences in my life.
I'm hoping to make more memories like these on my next trips!
