Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATED IN COUCHSURFING

I heard about couch surfing when I was in Iran but I didn't have the opportunity to participate. Then when I moved to Turkey, I decided to travel more and help and meet other travelers, so I joined.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One of the most amazing ones was surfing a boat in Dalaman
