Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I joined because after watching countless TED Talks on the importance of talking to strangers, I thought CS would be the perfect way to implement what I learned into my life. I want to meet the wonderful people that walk on this earth, to share stories, and to learn about different cultures and lifestyles. Additionally, being with someone who lives in the place I am visiting is the best way to immerse myself into a culture.
