Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I started hosting before I used it as a traveller in 2009/10 and in later years; I like taking my guests to the cs-meetings in my hometown and show them around Dresden and its beautiful surroundings

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I came to it incidentally and enjoy hosting people and show them my beautiful city and surroundings, meanwhile I used it a lot myself and even visited people I had hosted before.
