Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I want to host and been hosted for nice people, because I believe that's the way things should be, free, for the plaisure of a nice companie, a rich cultural exchange.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
My first experience was great, my friend and I were hosted by a really special Austrian Family in Vienna, The trip was great and they were the highest point of it.
Lately my brother and I surfed in Chelles close to Paris, it was also a great experience that adds a lot in fun and knowledge to our trip.
