So yesterday my first Couchsurfer arrived, he's from America and he's traveling around Europe on his bike. He's awesome, really nice, cool tattoos, piercings, long hair, very layed back person and on top of that he's bi Couchsurfing is a site where your share your couch with people who travel the world, backpackers and stuff. It's not a dating site and yes, it is very safe. Most countrys and big towns have at least one couchsurfer and you can stay for free for a few days just about anywhere in the world. I'm one of the only couchsurfers south of Paris without being too far away from it and since the end of May I've had quite a few requests and I think as time goes by I'll have more and more seeing as I'm one of the only stops after Paris before going to the south of France/Switzerland/Germany/Spain/Italy so yay more couchsurfers for me Their storys are amazing, the guy staying with me also speaks French perfectly so my roommates (one girl, one guy) can also talk to him. In about 10 days 2 cute Lithuanian guys are coming over to stay a few days, I'm guessing from the pics that one of them is gay and he's coming over with his 'friend' we'll see. I love meeting new people with exciting stories and I don't even have to go out and find them, they come to me If any ECers want to surf my couch, you're more than welcome :icon_wink
May take you up on that. I'm always popping over to France on my motorbike to see relatives. A stop south of Paris is just what I need :icon_wink
That sounds like fun. I'm gonna have to start doing that! Except my parents probably wouldn't like it, and if I get a new studenty place next year, I'm probably gonna have housemates, who might not like it. Ah well! We'll see, I guess.
:-/ There is something heart warming about a site like that. Maybe it's just the fact that I can use this an excuse to kidnap JSG all for myself. Pics of your first couch surfer btw? hahaha
I'd love to. But I can't... two problems. 1) I don't have money to go. 2) I can't take them back because even the couch is being used here. So I guess I'm not going anywhere
I don't really think he'll mind me posting pics of him, these ones are already on the internet. Voilà
