Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have loved hosting friends from around the world when living in San Francisco and now that I am traveling was inspired to CS to connect more to culture and adventure of places I travel.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I experienced CS when visiting Mallorca Spain few years ago and loved it so much I moved there for few months. I have mostly traveled with Servas ( cultural exchange ) and WWOOF yet inspired to check out CS again! If you want more perspective on me as I am pretty green on CS- welcome to check my profile out on FB - : Alli Sophia Cordelia Jones - happy to friend as well ; )
