COUCHSURFING INTERNATIONAL

Couchsurfing is a brilliant concept !!! It is an excellent way to experience different parts of the world, meet a diverse range of travel - minded people, and get direct immediate exposure to everyday life in what could be otherwise an unknown foreign place to the couchsurfer.

A couple of months earlier, when booking accommodation to initally stay in Buenos Aries, the guesthouse advised that the room had already been reserved for a few days, but it was available for my first three nights. After forty hours travel from the Far East, this provided a chance to rest and adjust. By booking in advance, I got a good discounted deal with the room rate. So, I decided to check out for 4 nights, couchsurf for that period, then check in again at the guesthouse for another 12 nights.
