我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

i want to be able to learn as much about this world and the people that inhabit it. traveling, experiencing new places and cultures, and meeting new people who have had different life experiences will help me shape my world views and learn all that i can about our wonderful little planet :)

i also just love people !!
