Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Heared from internet rumors.I had good experience in Istanbul, and than took around a "Kiwi" in Florence.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I travel alone since I was very young, so I'm used to be guest and host friends from all the places I visited, I'm a friendly person so it's easy to comunicate with people. One time returning from budapest int the train I was with a girlfiend, we satrt talking and sharing our thougtht with the traveler in the coach.
Arrived to Vienna an American gentlemen helped us to comunicate in german, in order to find a not expensive bed, but everything was full booked.
So He offer us to stay at his house with is family, we accepted, the only condition it was that we had to sleet separate because we were not married and they were very religious. We accepted it and it was funny and great experience of not interested hospitality. I'm talking about 1989, when the Berlin wall was shoot down.
