Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Why couch surfing?
After a 9 year gap couch surfing has resurfaced in my life, earlier I was introduced to couch surfing being a student in Germany where I had the time and opportunity to host but now things have changed and I a lead life which keeps me busy on the road. Travel has always excited me since a kid and overtime I have had the opportunity to enjoy it in various forms such as travel on work, organised package vacations, backpacking without a plan, to meet friends in other parts of the world. One thing I have realised in these travels which makes it very special and helps me remember certain occasions are the people whom I got to meet on these travels. I have done the same trip several no of times with different people ( friends, partner, family) and have had different experiences which I will ever cherish. In my opinion couch surfing gives the opportunity to travel through minds of people from different cultures, background , personalities.
