Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Mike has couch surfed & provided couches for years as part of the community of traveling underground bands, perhaps among the very first worldwide couch-surfing networks, as well as various international couch-surfing stints. Many couchsurfers are now lifelong friends. Always looking forward to meeting my next surfer or host.
