“Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends.”
Maya Angelou

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There is nothing better than meeting someone new and hearing their story. CS is an amazing resource for anyone looking to truly experience an area - not just the superficial tourist stuff. It has certainly made travel more enriching for me, and opened my eyes to a lot of new ideas and ideologies. I look forward to participating in CS for many years to come!
