We have to admit that every once in a while it is nice to stay in a motel/hotel for a night or two just to have some time just to ourselves but when we do we always comment that it doesn't feel the same, we miss that interaction we get with couchsurfing.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136052866820208847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-31988337093039573452014-01-29T00:54:26.788-05:002014-01-29T00:54:26.788-05:00Nope it didn't slow us down at all, mind you a...Nope it didn't slow us down at all, mind you a driving day is a pretty easy day for me.<br /><br />We love couchsurfing, it's a great way to meet local people, get a better understanding of the area and what is worth seeing or doing.
