Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We are looking for new encounter with smile and cultural exchange especially food and language!!

First of all,
We are traveling from Japan to Portugal avoiding airplane and setting budget for $3,500 each.

Do you think it’s possible!? We think yes!!

But there is a huge obstacle in front of us, which is
the high price in EUROPEAN COUNTRY

Oneday, my friend told me about this app
And we thought this app can make our travel more happy!! Because we can see new people and also share time, culture and memory!!
We also want to experience the local life with respect!!
And to see how people are living at places we will visit!
