Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I surfed a couple of couches in Europe a few years ago, with my friend, Kimmie. I learned how to play the saxophone, had personalised tours from my hosts, shared meals with families and was welcomed to parties. Lovely.
Am yet to host, but looking forward to when I can...
