我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I’ve discovered this great opportunity to meet wonderful people after my friend told me about his experiences, and since my first Couchsurfing trips when I decided to give it a try, I’ve been meeting the most interesting people in the world. We still keep in touch with some of my hosts and surfers, and I’m endlessly grateful for this opportunity to learn a lot about different cultures and personalities. I don’t see Couchsurfing as just a free accommodation, but the way you dive into the culture and share experiences that you’d never find staying at the soulless hotels.
I deeply appreciate this trust-based environment, and getting to know plenty of things I’d never discover on my own. Well, once again: I’m endlessly grateful for all the CS experiences I’ve ever had, and I’m sincerely sure this community is a treasury of the most real, open-minded and interesting people of this planet. And I simply love getting inspired by wonderful human beings — what can ignite you more?

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I’ve done skydiving, visited the base camp of Everest and grew a sunflower on the windowsill.

教，学，和分享

I’m eager to learn, understand different ways of thinking and get inspired by humans’ uniqueness and diversity.

I can teach you my language (no swearing words (I’m pretty sure somebody has already tought you them)), cooking from almost nothing (student superskills), wild traveling, ice skating and photography, and I can surely give you some tips how to deal with bears :)
