Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

This is not a new experience to me. I'm brazilian and I think that we are very friendly about all the diferent kinds of culture and peoples. My country was made by immigrants. Nowadays I would offer my couch to someone gipsy like me...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The most amazing couch experience was in Tofino, British Columbia Canada. I went there with some friends and in a pizzaria I found a piece of paper that a guy has left. He was loking for some company to sail from Tofino to Victoria. 3-day-trip with a guy that I didn't know before. It was very good, like a god-present for a lost in translation guy.
