COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A day spent with my friend the internet cafe manager, in Antwerp. He bought me lunch, and then I met his afghani roomate, who used to be a taliban soldier. we hung out and shared a joke. It's great to think that we are all capable of erasing cultural and ethnic diffenences through frendship and generosity.
