Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to host people whenever I have the chance, and if I can't host I like to meet and get to know people. I love cooking for guests and trading traveling stories with other adventurers!

I love traveling by couchsurfing. You get a much better feel for the place you're visiting by staying with actual residents of the country then if you were to stay in a hostel or hotel. You meet the most fascinating people and I feel it really enriches not only your traveling experience but also your life!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Every couchsurfing experience I've had has been great. I've hosted some very cool people and have been lucky to always have the most interesting and kind hosts wherever I go!
