I am Samuel from Argentina (32 years old). Actually, I am traveling around Australia with Work and Holiday visa. I have been in New Zealand as well for more than one year, and I consider it one of the most beautiful places in the world. I like meeting new people, and I think Couchsurfing offers this opportunity.
In my beginning, I used to be the host and it has been one of the best decisions I have ever taken since it allowed me to know awesome people, now I am on the other side trying to be a nice gest (which I guess i am but I shouldn't be the one who says that).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is one way to know about different cultures without travel. I have hosted a lot of people in my house and it has been one of the most beautiful experiences in my life. Now I'm traveling and i want to continue with this way to know people.
Couchsurfin is NOT a cheaper way for travelers, although some people think this.
