Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
CouchSurfing is this great and rare thing where you just come as you are and people gets kind to you for the only reason that they want to help and know more about you. I cannot think of many things that are that simple in this life! I try to be worth it when I'm lucky enough to be hosted, and to make people feel the most confortable when I welcome them at my place.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've couched surfs in Jerusalem, in Iceland, in a small west-southern town of France and in Chicago. I've appreciated it every time and discovered all those places with this awesome local touch to it which makes all the difference. You cannot properly meet a city if you don't meet the people who makes it what it is on an everyday life basis!
