Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We begin to have some good experience, with families generally

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We went in Bulgaria, and we slept in 2 places in Sofia, the first was in a french flat, at Fred Lauret's home, we didn't see him a lot, but it was a very beautiful place to sleep and he made directly confidence. The second time at Asem's Flat, it was very interesting to meet him and his family, he is a man of merit, and i think that i met a friend! very good experience...
