Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can host, when possible. Not much in this period, because I am often away because of work.
Hosting does not mean that my home is a hotel, it means that we will spend some time together. If possible, I will show you Zurich and the area, we will have breakfast together and we will get to know each other, our cultures, our experiences. Remember that no weiter will clean your room and make your bed, so please, feel encouraged to do it youerself. For all the rest, there are hotels available in the area.
