Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was a couchsurfer without knowing it. The first time I hosted someone, it was this girl from Corea,I found her in Station Midi in Brussels, she looked exhausted, I asked if she was ok and she said yes, I asked her if she was waiting for a train she said yes, and I asked when does the train come?, she said the next day midday, I said Are you staying here till morning ? She said that she had no choice, no money. I invited her to sleep in my house. She came she rested and she went in the morning.

Since then I do when it’s needed.

Once I was hosted, in june 2012 , I met this girl in "co-voiturage" we just started talking and become friends directly, she hosted me in Paris. and the next day when my CS from this website cancelled at 20:00 I was disappointed and I met this guy who invited me to stay , the next day we spend the whole doing different kind of things, like painting, talking about how to be the change we want to see. It's amazing how people can be AMAZING

I think welcoming people and being welcomed it's natural and human.
When I host someone , I don't have any expectations than curiosity of getting to know new people. Treat my house like is yours, ...
