Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For the past couple of years I haven't had much opportunity to host or surf on account of I've been off the beaten path and haven't been traveling. I'd like to start hosting and surfing again.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The first couch I surfed was in Beijing and belonged to TK and her roommate Chris. They were great hosts. At one point they transferred money into my bank account, so that I could get my visa renewed. And all my experiences since have been great too.
