Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Biked to Berlin in 2010 through Hungary, Slovakia, Austria, Czech Republik and Germany, came home in 2011 through Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Poland, Slovakia and Hungary. In the second part of the journey i was hosted by numerous wonderful couchsurfers, and after i got home, and had the chance, i also hosted some.

If I could afford to stay in hotels, I'd still opt for CS. That says everything, I guess.
