Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I realized the presence of coachsurfing in 2015. I was always hearing something about it but i never wondered what it is. While my exchange experience my girl friend talked about it. She is also making exchange in Germany right now and she said that it is very useful in Europe. Following her advices, i registered in Coachsurfing. I had no experience on coach surfing and i am open to everything. When i was traveling i was generally choosing Hostels to meet with new people. I wouldn't know that though. It must be a totally different experience and i am very excited.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We have a organization for physically handicapped children as my university club. We are providing diving experience to these children in pools for three years.
