Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am a couchsurfing much earlier than having this online profile! If couchsurfing phylosophy is sharing experience, looking the world from a non-comercial point of view, do your best to change something you believe on, or just help people to move around, then I really started a long time a ago! Besides, I've been an student since ever, which means keep learning, keep traveling, keep growing, but also, keep living with a very few money! In my country, that is so big, is not easy to travel around... it cost a lot for us, normal people! So far, we are very friendly with each other... it means that we always have a friend, or a friend of friend (of a friend -sometimes!) that can host or can be hosted when traveling. So, that's the way I was traveling in brazil before move to England... thorough friends! Here my social network changed a bit, and I found CS again! Its being great to meet people in my new city, Bristol! CS here is very active! I am ready for new experiences!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am quite frequent in CS meetings in Bristol, hanging around with some familiar faces and always meeting new ones! I love the spirit of "everyone is welcome"! I also meet like to meet people (travelers or not)for a coffee or drink, or random things...Unfortunatly i can host this moment, but happy to hear from anyone fancy anything fun!
