What an amazing adventure
What an amazing adventure. As an entrepreneur I was wrapped up in the world of P&L statements, payroll and media until I walked into the living room of an Engish girl named Traci. My walls were covered with articles that Forbes, The New York Time and USA Today had written about me. Yes, I was proud of these accomplishments but as I gazed at Traci's wall, covered with pictures of Couchsurfing friends I realized it was time for me to get my priorities in order. I am still an entrepreneur but my walls are now covered with memories as well as accolades. Couchsurfing enables me to live a life of adventure in my own living room. I now have friends all over the world and who know...when I am ready to make my company and international one, I will always have a couch to rest my head on after a hard days work.

Sharing and trusting and loving
Couchsurfing... For some people it's going to be a way of traveling on a shoestring budget, for others its going to be a way of meeting people from all over the world, to me its became a way of living, its a life changing experience! It changed the way I feel about this world and the whole humanity. It's all about sharing and trusting and loving.

It's just an undescribable feeling
CouchSurfing is about meeting some of the most amazing, kind and generous people you would never have met, from all corners of the world. You experience a part of their life - you see the world from their eyes. It's just an undescribable feeling. It leaves you inspired to spread that love and be a better person.
