Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have Couchsurfed many times before but now have a new profile. In 2009 I travelled all around Eastern Europe and stayed with about 6 different Couchsurf hosts. We did this all through my friend's profile...one that I no longer have access to so hence the new CS profile. I have hosted a couple of people in London too and have stayed in contact with a few people that I have met before. Now I have finished my studies I am working in an Architects and get to travel occasionally when i go on holiday!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
My most recent experience was staying with a host in Chicago, US. This was a great experience and reminded me of all the added benefits there is to knowing a local!
Have stayed with couchsurfers in Thessaloniki, Greece // Istanbul, Turkey // Sofia, Bulgaria // Vienna, Austira //Prague, Czech Republic // Belgrade, Serbia.
Have also hosted people in London a couple of times.
All my experiences of couchsurfing have been fantastic. Everybody I have met through CS has been really cool and incredibly kind and welcoming to me when I have needed a place to stay!
