PHILOSOPHY

To understand the world

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We want to host people as often as we can. Cause Simon works, and Ive studied, we do not have much time to travel. Whenever we have free time we escaping from the city and discover new and interesting places in our country.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Our previous experience are absolutly positive; couchsurfing is a fantastic idea and great people!

In June and July we spent some time traveling. With Couchsurfingu we stayed in Kiev and Israel. It was really fantastic. Initially we had some concerns about whether we can find the hosts, but quickly it turned out they were unfounded. Slavek, David and Lenka, Erez and Ofra, Amitai, Luke - thanks much!
