Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i was worried at first about my first time as a couchsurfer, not as a host. I had hosted several times, but had never been the guest when I arrived in London. I had plans to only stay for a day at my host's place but he ended up inviting me for the whole week! he told me where to wander, and also invited me to his work where he treated me to a drink and a lovely time. it was a wonderful welcome to this organization!

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

On a Romania-bound train, in the heat of summer, I danced barefoot to the songs of a four-piece Hungarian folk band (complete with double bass) that struck up in the compartment next to mine and turned down both the moonshine and marriage proposal of a wizened old, gold-toothed sheep herder.

Insegna, impara, condividi

Krakow, Poland: Go close to a holiday. They serve hot, spiced wine in the main squares and sell cheese in the streets.
Prague: Don't go during an ice storm. It's hard to get around. Also, it's a prettier place at 5a.m.
Melbourne: Get out of fhe city and ramble the Dandenong mountains. It's worth the drive!
Montreal The junk shops are the best. And the bagels too. And the people are beautiful.
