Why I'm on Couchsurfing
For me traveling means stepping out of your comfort zone and by doing so, you are also expanding it. I am generally interested in people, all the more people from other countries. Plus I always appreciate a good conversation over drinks or coffee. Everyone has thousands of stories worth listening to. Couchsurfing is not about a free stay but the people you meet. It also helped me a great deal in learning how to make friends with a much broader range of people than I would have done otherwise.
