Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am welcoming guests. I have discovered recently however, it is not always easy too combine it with my work (as in welcoming someone when I come home from work around midnight, isn't so easy) but you are welcome to ask if our planning can be combined. :)
Once or twice a year when I decide I like to make a trip, I look for a place to surf.
If you want to couchsurf with me, please check my living conditions: I can not offer you a private room at the moment.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted a couple of times, surfed about as often. Both were really good experiences.
