Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a great platform to deep into the country, not just tourism like travelling, but staying with local people, with whom we can share lifestyle, traditions and customs exchange.
If possible cross-cultural experience would be highly appreciated.

Except being far from family usually is very difficult, therefore staying in family like atmosphere would be cool.
