Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

once upon a time one friend hitch-hiked from Turkey to Greece and brought an adorable italian couple that gave him a ride back home.. so we all met up and spent the night in a traditional folk feast near my village, then I hosted them at my place..And that's how I was introduced to this sharing, caring world. After that, I have hosted many travelers and love offering to this community I am part of.
