我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have heard about CS from one of my closest high school friend. He told me about CS and that he is meeting with new people from other cultures. He is visiting Istanbul with them and talking with them in English. When i heard that i have said "hey dude, i am in! (in Turkish)". Firstly, I have participated to the Books and Movie meetings in Kadikoy, Istanbul; the sessions were beneficials. Then I have participated some weekly CS parties in Kadikoy.
But I have started to live CS spirit in Athens with the events that i have participated and friends that i have gained. CS made my adaptation period in Athens easier and joyful.
In India, my CS friends showed me around.
In Istanbul, I have hosted many people.
