Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I usually host people through a network for touring bicyclist (warmshowers.org), but it is much smaller that couchsurfing, so I am hoping to use CS as a resource for my current bicycle tour

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am a member of warmshowers.org, which is a hospitality site for cycling tourists. I have hosted through them numerous times, but have only used CS a few times.
