Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i have hosted a little, surfed quite a bit, talked about this project to (almost) every single person i know, and used it to find other CSers in places i have lived. even if it's just offering advice on my city, or somewhere i've been, every interaction i can do to help this project has been a great pleasure.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i have been the recipient of a gamut of beautiful displays of totally selfless hospitality, and i feel extremely grateful towards it all. *laughing* i have slept in so many random places... with friends of friends of friends... but couchsurfing is different. the people i have met couchsurfing through europe and in canada have become some of my best friends and they have made my trips what they are.

Just moved to Nelson.
