To welcome you onboard this blog, I have decided to upload the video about Couchsurfing that some of you saw in class. Do you remember what 'couchsurfing' is ? Imagine you are a thirsty traveller, but you don't have money to spend on hotels. What can you do ? You can enter couchsurfing.org and look for people who will let you sleep on their couches (sofas) for free ! You can also let other people use your couch for free. This will help you get to know other cultures and, what is more, make cosmopolitan friends. Amazing, isn't it ? Imagine how interesting is to get to know a local person that can get you around the city and show you its hidden and fabulous places ! Much like Blablacar, Couchsurfing has become a popular page among travellers and it has had a huge success.
Let's do some exercises:
1. Go to Couchsurfing webpage and browse through it. Who knows ? Maybe one day, you'll end up being a Couchsurfer.
2. Here you have the video. Have a look at it and, if possible, find out the advantages of Couchsurfing mentioned in the video.
What about you ? What's your opinion about Couchsurfing ? Would you like to let other people sleep in your couch ? Would you use to travel somewhere to save some money ? Why (not) ? You may answer all these questions posting a comment.
