COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
After being registered on the site for three years, I finally just had my first official couchsurfing experience in Porto, Portugal...annnnndd it was FANTASTIC.
I stayed with a wonderful family who very attentive and generous. At first, I was really nervous but they definitely put me at ease. Also, they already had some maps of the city from when other couchsurfers had stayed with them, which was very very convenient for me.
Best Part : got to practice my portuguese!!!
