Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Have you ever walked, rolled, backflipped or boogied down a typical suburban street and thought how strange the houses are, all one after the other where we conduct our safe, little, private lives..couch surfing explodes this. we let a stranger into the house and we go from there. i participate in cs because in principal it's one of the greatest things that we could ever engage in.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couch surfed a few of times, hosted a few people when I could and hung out with couch surfers on numerous occasions - I fell in love with cs and never looked back ..
