Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host and surf, and tell everyone who will listen how this is changing the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I lived on couchsurfing for two months in college when I was working on the Obama campaign, and hosted as often as my roommates would let me (which wasn't much). Now getting back into the community.

Oh, and while I was riding there I was keeping the oil plug of my motorcycle stuck in with chewing gum!

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Both talks are key for understanding how Couchsurfing is more than just incredible experiences and the best way to travel, it is the start of a true revolution.
