Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd love to do more with couch surfing. I have stayed with other people quite a few times. Everyone I have met is kind and generous. I feel so lucky to be a part of this community and getting to know people while traveling. When I have my own place,I can't wait to host travellers!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couch surfed with wonderful people through Italy. One of the best: trying to bake chocolate chip cookies and I ended up wielding a giant knife to cut up a chocolate bar.
