我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i love the concept behind couchsurfing.this project is a really good thing because it encourages people to break down barriers and trust one another. i like anything that encourages me to keep an open mind and treat people with kindness and generosity.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i hosted travelers in Halifax (where i did my undergrad), thanks to my flatmate KT, who has been a member of couchsurfing for some time now. i've also been backpacking all over the world and have met some incredibly beautiful people. i love the opportunity traveling provides to form instant and sometimes profound and long-lasting friendships. i'd like to do the same when i'm standing in one place.
