Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Would love to host in the future, currently I'm too busy studying for finals!
Would also love to do some couchsurfing myself in the future and make new friends abroad.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My friends and I met a Canadian guy at a music festival who was travelling alone - he heard us busking and came over. He introduced himself and we spent the weekend hanging out, and the week in Prague too. We convinced him to come back to the UK with us and see the sights. He stayed at my house for a night, and I showed him all around central London for a day - it was fun to see that the things I take for granted were photo-worthy! I gave him some books to read as he carried on his travels, and we've stayed in touch ever since!
