This is Cătălin, from Bucharest (born and raised). My goal is to discover and see as many places as possible from this amazing world, to meet new people and learn from them, to understand and experience different cultures

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have this account from 2013, but never actually used it, so I've finally decided to give it a try

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently unable to host people, as I live in a small studio, but whenever I'm available I can go for a drink or I can show visitors the less known parts of my city - Bucharest

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Newbie, I'm just getting the hang of it.
