Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that travelling is all about becoming immersed in the local culture, and couchsurfing is such an awesome opportunity to do that! I love how one can spend time with people who come from completely different backgrounds and walks of life, and it doesn't matter because at the end of the day we are all just human.
