Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We are backpacking our way through Europe from Athens to the UK.
Always up to meet new people through couch surfing or hostels and have a better time than staying in a hotel by ourselves, wanting to meet locals who can help introduce us to their culture as well as share with us places and knowledge of their hometown.
