Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In my visit to Guatemala in 2007, I met a friend from the Domenican Republic. He told me that he was a CouchSurfing member and that he likes exchanging visits with other people he met online. At first, I was surprised and reluctant to join the group, but when I visited him last week in Santo Domingo, I realized how much fun I was missing. In his house , I met another couch surfer that became my travel buddy for a week and together we had a lot of fun. So, now I am joining the CouchSurfing family to enjoy great cultural exchange experiences.
