Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love the idea on experiencing the place from meta level, from someone home. Hotels and motels are good, yet they are the same every where. Everybody's home are unique to the background they have and as I love spread my tolerance, cultural knowledge, this is the best way to connect, get the touch of different people, places and cultures and to make a new friend or two.
