Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Word of mouth, word of mouth, and word of mouth!! (As you can see this was before CS went corporate) Now I mostly just host, opposed to spreading the word about CS and hosting, and i don't surf much due to my lack of skills when it comes to planning. Hahaha
