Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Before the world wide web I had my thumb for hitch-hiking and a pack to throw on a freight train at the end of the season. Sometimes I met nice people who said sleep here: in my yard, on my floor, would you like a coffee or something to eat? Sometimes it was cold and I stayed under overpasses and ate tortillas. I liked both.

These days I don't get out as much but you can sleep here.
