COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted and visited. let me emphasize that through all my life we received people to our couch and surfed those of others. My parents took us to visit and received, and I have been taking or referring my children. Based upon that experience I strongly believe that it is so much more fun to stay with someone in their home than in a hotel.
