Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Three and a half years later, I'm still on couchsurfing because thanks to it I have felt more than at home in countless cities across the world. Thanks to it, I've met amazing people who have gone above and beyond to properly introduce me to their streets, their music, their language, their art, their philosophy & their cuisine. In other words, I'm on couchsurfing to feel like a local in a far away place.
