Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We like travelling very much. We love to meet people, their way of life, and we enjoy visiting the cultural heritage everywhere. So, we think couchsurfing could be very helpful when travelling.
On the other hand, we thought CS would be interesting in the opposite way: to meet people from everywhere at home, and help them to have a warm stay in Valencia.
We decided to try it... and here we are.

Nos gusta mucho viajar. Nos encanta conocer personas y sus formas de vida y visitar el patrimonio cultural allá donde vayamos. Por eso pensamos que couchsurfing podría sernos muy útil cuando viajemos.
Por otro lado, pensamos que CS resultaría interesante para lo contrario: conocer gente de todas partes aquí, en casa, y ayudarles a tener una estancia cálida y familiar en Valencia.
Decidimos probar... y aquí estamos.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Enrique: an amazing stay in Petra (Jordan) during a solar eclipse.
