Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Started by asking for accommodation in Rio and found a great place/platform to meet nice people with a great sense of community.

I try to meet people who are interested in sharing some experiences together, and strengthen the idea of community and shared economy.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Stayed a few times with couchsurfing hosts and it is an incredible and humbling feeling. I try to give bad some of the love and kindness I got form these people.
