Well, I once Couchsurfed in Barcelona. My host was a friendly girl who loved cooking. She made me some traditional Spanish dishes and introduced me to her group of friends. We all went to a local festival together and I got to experience the real spirit of the city. It was an amazing time filled with music, dancing and new friendships.
Sure. One great Couchsurfing experience I had was in Paris. I stayed with a local host who was really passionate about art. He took me to some hidden art galleries and small cafes that only locals knew. We also had great conversations about different cultures and he gave me some really good tips on exploring the city on a budget.
