Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would like to host people from other countries and soon I hope to surf

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have not surfed myself yet but recently hosted a young french couple. The girl's parents had looked after my daughter near Pris and I was glad to have them stay at my place on their way around Australia. They were coming for a week but stayed a month. Really enjoyed it. I benefited as much as they did. Also had a friend of my daughter's from .. stay for a few days.
