Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just graduate at university in physical education with one of my best buddy. My best friend I've had at university lives at 6 hours of drive. So, my trip began with the fact that we will lost each others. We were both passionate by seen Europe. So we decided to plan a huge trip around Europe (Spain, Portugal, Croatia, Hungary, Austria, Germany, Czech Republic, Netherlands). This is a big trip for me because it's the first time I leave the America. I want to discover a lot when I'm going to be in Europe and lots of my friend told me that couch surfing is the best manner to live my trip

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I never had the chance to use couchsurfing yet but I ask a lot of my friend and I understand the concept very well. They told me that is an exchange of culture. The people want to receive to make an exchange of culture not just to occupy their couch. Lots of people are ready to receive couchsurfers to ''travel''.
