Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Travelling it is always important for us not just to see wonderful new and interesting places but also to get to know people that live there, be able to get a different view on things, exchange...It Kind of gives a different feeling than just "consuming" what you see....
I started couchsurfing in 2009 and just had poitive experiences until now. In some countries it was even the only possibility for us to talk to people that are not working in tourism.

Interests

I have a lot of different interests....Travelling is what I like most. So every time I have time and money I like to travel around to get to know another interesting place, to learn something about a culture, the meet people from these places....
