Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used to live with 34 peeple in share apartment last year and someone there hosted a French girl who got to know each other in this site. That seemed very fun and great experience.
Why not I try as well? That's the reason I'm here:)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted someone in the end of July in 2013 that was my firsts time as host.
It was really fun and got kind of special feeling I have never had in my life.
Think - Someone you have never met visits you from oversea and gets involved in your daily life.
How you can say it is bring?
Also I noticed I feel like I'm traveling my guest's country while I'm with him/her.

Seriously I can't explain how Couchsurfing brighten up my life.
I haven't tried surfing yet, but I'm sure it will be amazing as well as hosting.
