Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just beginning, but will do more.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Once, I went couchsurfing in Prague. I had a great dinner with my host. We discussed the topics of the day: the forthcoming impressionists' exhibition, the Bosnian question, the recent tragical end of Princess Sisi. We had finished a good bottle of Slivovitz, before we went to bed. I had a fevery night full with dreams and twisted phantasies. When I woke up in the morning, my arms and legs felt light and strangely fragile. I looked down on my body - I had become a fly!
