COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I hosted several people in 2011 and greatly enjoyed it. I have not decided whether to repeat the experience this year or not because I have been very busy with my job and I found hosting to be quite a time-hungry activity. I do not intend to surf - I prefer hosteling or camping.
I am returning more than ten years after first hosting. I know live in a comfortable house with a spare bedroom, so I thought I would dip my feet in the water again for the sake of company, in the main.
