Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

my busy life does not allow me to host often. but this network of good people who value cultural exchange over money is one of the best things ive come across.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

all of my couchsurfing experiences have rocked: the people ive stayed with have all been amazing and i try to reciprocate, cooking something yummy to share and/or leaving behind or sending later not only good energy and memories but also original art, etc.
