There is a Hans Christian Andersen statue in Malaga. One city where he was a couchsurfer.
Hans Christian Andersen is mostly known for his fairy tales. But he was also one of the greatest travelers of his time. And a real Couchsurfer. He never had a permanent home. Large parts of his life, he lived for free in peoples houses and castles. Making him a 19th century Couchsurfer. Long before anyone had thought about that this would one day be a common thing to do among travelers.
