Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting, smiling a lot, being a good person

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When I lived in Vancouver I had some amazing couchsurfers stay at my house with my roommate Jake. They were all rad and nothing made me happier than someone who made me food. These days I cannot host because I’m renting a single room in a house.
