Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We nt sailing and kayaking with CS members in Florida, good times. Had a CS member from Australia join me in a Condo in Bahamas had a great time. Looking for more adventures.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Had a CS from Australia in a Codo I had rented in Bahamas it was the 1st and worked out great. The 2nd was at my home young man from USA,took to Hoover Dam and new Arched Bridge & Lake Mead. 3rd was a nice family from China, Great Times. 4th CS from Mexico City had great time showing local area and Casinos. 5th a young couple from Poland did a 4mile hike along Lake Mead Railroad Tunnels Trail and on to local Marina and Hoover Dam. They were all rewarding experiences.
