Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For me Couchsurfing is an organic way to exchange ideas, learning how to trust, become familiar with different philosophies about life, observe some delicate nuances in each individual person which is related to their education, beliefs, cultures and hardly can be reflected in a Documentary on Youtube plus the fact that it’s a great opportunity to make new friends and hopefully keeping in touch.
