RE: I took a boat to Estonia to couch-surf (and it was awesome) Part 1

Absolutely amazing experience for you to have shared with us! I've been of a similar mindset for a long time that when I travel I'd much rather see the 'normal' like of those actually living there, versus just seeing the sights as a tourist. So much more meaningful to me in seeing 'what makes other people tick.'

Right? I feel like hostels and hotels are obviously nice to stay in, but there is nothing that beats staying with locals. Seeing their country through their lens is such an indescribable experience.
