Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel a lot but fortunate enough to have never required the kindness of strangers because I have quite the global network of friends who would gladly take me in. Now I will be traveling to places where I don't know anyone, and but I'm also hopeful that people are people as always - and will be kind as my friends taking me in for a night or a few in one part of the world or another =)
