Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING Learned from a friend who loves travel very much. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I had two Couchsurfing experiences. My Brazilian friend contacted the host in Washington DC who was super nice to offer us a room and showed us around the capital city. It was a very good experience of cultural exchange and making friends, that was my first time know about Couchsurfing. I did my own Couchsurfing in Tibet on a Chinese platform. I stayed with a teacher of Lasha University for almost one month. She was so nice to teach me about Tibetan culture and we shared a lot of stuff.
