Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Back home I host people, involve them in my life and show them what locals do.

When travelling I love cooking and dont mind cleaning up the dishes either (but I am not cinderella, maybe i could pretend i am :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Its so easy to give people only a little bit of your time /space/life and it means so much more to them.

And it means so much to be to be given a glimpse into how other people do their thing, in life. Also so great meeting people other than travellers all the time.
