Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
To really experience the people and culture of the country I visit, and those I host.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Wow its great. 6 lovely people are new friends.
It seems sad to make these friends & never see them again; but also it is so lovely to have had the time together. This is what holidays are about – quality time with lovely people. Now I can’t imagine having a holiday “alone” ever again.
Been back to my first friend and host in Vienna the next year and we still write even though she is not in CS anymore.

Teach, Learn, Share
The national park next door, with kangaroos and many wildflowers, vegetable garden and sustainable living.... and much more exchanges of each other's culture.
