Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I have hosted kids from Up With People in my home, and I have hosted foreign exchange students here as well. When I was 20, I went on an exchange to England, and I really love the concept of sharing the domicile with travelers. I am looking to travel through Germany and the Netherlands on a research project this summer, so this site was suggested to me. I am a novice, however, but I am looking forward to meeting new people.
