Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Some of my friends joined and have had great experiences, which I am glad to have shared. That made me join and host back in Bogota.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I used to live with a member, he hosted a peruvian girl and on another time a guy from France, both of them for around a week. Those were my first courchsurfing experiences, which made me join the site.

Besides that, I've shared time with some other CSurfers which stayed at friends' places. Then I hosted who is now a good friend from Hong Kong, I had a good time showing her around.

After that I kept hosting in Bogota, attending parties and meeting with the CS community. Now I do the same in Kyoto, Japan. This is part of my life now, I hope I can continue let that host/surfer spirit grow!

Then I lived in Kyoto where I put an extra futon to an use a few times!
