HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to share ideas, conversations, places, food, party...Ive hosted and been hosted by very nice people !!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

before CS I had some hospitality club experiences,mostly VERY nice but also weird ones.
i like people who respect privacy in spite of the CS situation.
I love the way people with very different backgrounds and lifestyles, whose paths are not likely to cross in everydaylife, meet, share and exchange experiences, stories and perspectives :-)
