Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host travelers from around the world, show them around , engage them in awesome conversation, and force them to eat good food ( wa ha ha)... you know how that works. I also go to local CS meetings for friendship and inspirations. The rule of thumb is that I treat people the way I wish to be treated.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Not a whole lot, honestly. I have mostly done youth hostels. However, I did it once in Boston when I first visited here in 2003, and once in London with a friend of a friend. They all turned out great.
