Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am at couchsurfing, because I think it is an awesome way to connect and exchange with people all around the world. Through meeting local people from different countries many cutural aspects can be exchanged, we can leran from each other quite a lot and have much fun together! In my opininon it is very interesting and important to learn how other people live and how they think and behave. I want to learn about the daily life, hobbys and traditions in other countries. Besides, I would be glad to share and tell other people about life in Germany.
