Thank You For Hosting Me

I had a great time with all of my hosts, whether I had met them previously, or through Couchsurfing.  I highly recommend this social network.  Before my trip, I hosted two people and wrote a 3-part piece about the experience.  It has remained one of the most popular articles on the blog the whole time!
