I recently found CS. Looks like a good platform. Still exploring. My profile is new here but I surely have a knowledge about CS and its essence.

I have some serious full time jobs and I am often on the move traveling different countries.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Since I travel a lot so I might come across some like minded souls. CS helps me meeting local people who could show you hidden gems. According to me tourism is much beyond seeing the tourist spots. If given a chance I would love to be a part of a local festival or a local marriage. Or meet local groups, students or working class, talk on various topics about how people one one culture feel and think about different things.

Seeing so many similarities in diverse nations always fascinates me.

So there is always a debate on number of countries 195 or 193?

There are 206 sovereign states; of which 193 are members of the UN, two have observer status at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) (the Holy See and Palestine), and 11 others are neither a member nor observer at the UNGA.

It's interesting how each are different from the other and yet have the same people with same emotions similar likings . This world itself is ONE BIG COUNTRY - PLANET EARTH
