Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i used to host quite a lot while in cities, lately i had no place for my own, or was very hidden.

i found hosting great. people visiting with shiny eyes, excited of the travels, bringing buzz around without having to leave my house. awesome deal.
