Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have been hosting for a few good years now but rarely surfed! I like to host people and get in touch with good souls and offer a safe harbor when traveling is great but can also be a bit stressful at times if you are always on the go. I like to host for at least two or three nights, as that give us a chance to spend time together and give the chance to this connection to grow. Sometimes people stay longer if we both feel like it.
I try not to over do it though and take some time between hostings.
I like my own space too from time to time :)
