Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm just one happy camper ;D

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first experience was an inter-rail trip in the summer of 2013, most amazing experience I ever had... Everyone was so incredibly nice! I met some people that I will certainly never forget. From then on I was truly impressed.

In my opinion, couchsurfing is more than hotel experience. When I send a couch request to someone, I'm not looking for "just" a couch. I expect to spend some time with my hosts and get to know them. I never forget my hosts - I like to keep the memories in my heart forever.

The same goes when I host someone. I would like to get to know them, show them my city (if they want), and take them to a bar or a cute café maybe! Just spend some time together. I want to help keep that part of couchsurfing alive, the friendship!

I would like to host a couchsurfing event in my city some day... :)
