我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

To exchange ideas and life experience with interesting people.Currently I live in the central Manchester in a shared flat, where my kind-heaarted flatmates also support me to host and help CSers coming to this city. We talk and sometimes hang out for pubs and cool things(e.g. X'mas market, gig, art shows). Everyone I have met just gives me a new perpestive to watch the world go around and I've learned a lot from the way they treat others well. Have been to CS meetings, they are regularly held nearby... Recently begin to travel around and hope to meet people in another way of surfing them, haha. Always ready to accept anything in the journey of CS.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have hosted several people,all lovely guys.Everybody is so unique due to different ages and travelling experiences. So far I, everytime, offer a bed or even my bedroom to CSers, sometimes cook together and keep chatting always and always. I never expect any gifts beforehand but mostly I just embrace surprises. I still remember once the cool photographer Ryu's motto("Being too comfortable is not a good thing at youth.") just changes my viewpoint that I repeat it to my surroundings quite often. As a coucher, I really gain more than I actually offer. Well, CSing is a way to reflect myself when I am having fun or not fun with people with a beautiful heart (frankly, I haven't met bad people yet, though should be cautious). Life is full of surprises and so is CSing. Want to do it better.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

The trip to Malaysia in 2010 summer is still sooooo fresh in mind. Two girls planned everything long before for the trip, 1-week short, bumpy but really rewarding journey. We enjoyed the food, the beach, the complicated and kind people, local or touring, and all the difficulties we encountered. Once I am thrown to a strange place on my own, I begin to taste the strange flavour and gradually it becomes less strongly strange and life is a bit multi-layer.
