Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted several people and stayed with a couple of hosts. I have worked in development projects in Moldova and Botswana. To travel is also my private passion.

I open my home to those who are interested in meeting and sharing. If you only need a free place to stay, it' s better to ask someone else.
