Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've stayed with a few people as I have traversed the world, I haven't yet had a chance to host but my home in Mongolia is open to anyone who would like to visit
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
The most interesting experience was sleeping on my Uncle's couch in Vietnam...it was my first time being in Ho Chi Minh city, and it was an amazing experience. There were so many motorbikes, honking, narrow roads, street vendors, and a large French Influence - it was an eye-opening experience.
