Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've been incredibly lucky in the things I've had a chance to see and do. Unfortunately, I was incredibly unlucky in my inability to recall them unless something reminds me of it. So...recently, I got to go on a nice hike in the red rock mountains and a couple months ago I got a chance to see one of the so-called "New 7 Wonders of the World": Iguazu Falls on the border of Argentina and Brasil.

Also, the main page of that site has a lot of stuff written by local foreigners in the prefecture:
