Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING

Stayed with a lady in Florida last year which was a delightful experience.
Met someone thru CS in Ireland a few years ago, very friendly experience.
I joined CS because I seem to be perpetually on the move, like to meet local people when traveling, and CS offers a unique opportunity to do this, along with hostels.
