Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Be a host and being host. Seems to us a good way to stop being a tourist and beginning to really enjoy cultures and cities by meeting locals. Knowing people imply something more than just seeing their country, like living with them or just sharing a room. We want to get in touch by eperiencing and sharing common experiences.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So many request from all over the world! It is fantastic to host people and show them our city. We love to talk and sometimes to drink too with our guest. It sometime much more natural to enjoy a drink and to express ourselves!

Interests
