Hi everyone, I'm Amanda.

- I like meeting new friends, sharing stories and experiences.
- I like food and also enjoy cooking.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I knew Couchsurfing from a magazine when I was still in high school.

After I read the description and some comments on this CS thing, I was like, a bit surprised by how the CS thing works and at the same time, super excited. Honestly, I have to say I can't agree more with the ideology that CS's spreading. To meet locals during your trip and make yourself travel like a local, it's just great, isn't it? The hosts and guests can share their stories, make friends or just hang out and have fun. Spontaneous and unexpected.

Although sometimes there are some risks, so always be careful!!

Anyway, trust is the first principle, and that's what I believe in. Always be kind to others. ;)

SURFING EXPERIENCE

I was a CS host in a hangzhou, Nanjing, and now in Shanghai.

As a CS surfer, I used this platform in Cambodia, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Australia, Malaysia ...

I have to say, I love ❤️ CS. I met so many people from CS, and some of them, we are still keeping in touch. For me, CS is not only about a free accommodation or a free tour guide, but something far beyond that. The trust, the friendship, the love,etc.
