Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I was kinda neglecting my CS-duties in the past years, simply because I was not able to host. In Budapest, when I was really active, I mostly hosted people, only surfed a couple of nights. However, one day I am really going to visit my friends in the US, Portugal, Brazil, Argentina, Germany, Poland... In the beginning of my stay in Evanston I was actually organizing events (eventhough I could not host); I am planning to be active in Austin once again.
