Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to exchange experiences.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Earlier I was occasionally showing my home city Kyiv to some couchsurfers. I never hosted anyone, neither did I surf. In August 2012 I first went on a trip to Italy, where I decided to couchsurf. It was something unbelievable! I was so extremely lucky with all of my hosts! They did so much for me! Eversince, my doors have been open to couchsurfers as a sign of gratitude to those who hosted me.
During my CS experience I had different stories. With some people I became very close friends, some people turned out to be disrespectful and mean (yeah, once our host kicked us out of his appartment when one of my friends refused to be more than friends with him). People are different, stories are different. But I keep believing in the beauty of this world and that there are genuinely kind and nice people.
