Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i have only surfed once, it was before i was a member of cs with a friend i met travelling last year in vietnam. She was a cs member and she had arranged for us to stay with a french guy in hannoi. His place was cool and he made us feel at home. He had a fiend staying and they had some food and drink waiting when we got there and the next night we returned the favour.
They gave us a key and just left us to it. I remember thinking after that this is a really good way to travell and meet like minded people.
