Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used to live in a few flatshares the offered Couchsurfing, also I like to join parties and events in different cities.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

once I didn't catch a night train and was about to run around rome for a night with two people who spoke two languages I didn't understand and then spontaneously called up a couchsurfer who after a beautiful summer night on his motorcycle invited me to join him and his friends to sail around the islands of Ponza, near Rome. I ended up staying, spending days only seeing endless horizon, having wine dinners on deck, swimming on islands for breakfast or falling asleep on deck and being red as a lobster after. oh, and seafood by the harbour.
