CERTAIN PEOPLE USE COUCHSURFING ONLY TO GET FREE ACCOMODATION, AFTER LEAVING THEY PRETEND TO FORGET NEITHER TO SAY THANK YOU NOR TO LEAVE REFERENCE.

FIRST AND FOREMOST: I've been using CS for quite some time, and that's why I'm a CS ambassador. You need to know that couchsurfing is not a free accommodation with free food, so I hope that you can spend money too for your food and we share it

So far I have hosted people from France, Italy, Spain, Germany, Hungary, Russia, Egypt, Switzerland, The Netherlands, Sweden Denmark, Czech Republic, Puerto Rico, Portugal, Iran, Brazil, Argentina and Ukraine, Vietnam, USA, Norway, Poland, Mexico, Malta and India....We'd like to host more people especially from the countries we haven't hosted, not for getting free bed/food but to have discussion and share our culture and our point of view on something and it would be great to get a REFERENCE after you leave my home. We are also clean, we don't drink alcoholic drinks or else, If you send us couch request make sure you don't use drugs otherwise you'll be sorry.

My house is not big and there are a lot of things inside it because we have an online business, it might not as clean as what you imagine because we live with our Labrador dog

CURRENT MISSION

Our personal project:
We are now planning to build our own small library. We decided this afer some CS members gave us their novels/books. so we'd be glad if you could donate your books/novel (no matter in what language the books are)
We also have other projects: I've been collecting postcards from long ago, so far I have more than 500 postcards from more than 50 countries....you can help me grow my collection. As for my wife she is colecting fridge magnets from foreign countries.

I AM LOOKING FOR GUESTS/VOLUNTEERS TO HELP ME WITH MY JOB AS AN ENGLISH TEACHER, YOU CAN SHARE YOUR KNOWLEDGE, NOT ONLY ENGLISH BUT ALSO OTHER THINGS (MAYBE COMPUTER SCIENCE, ARTS, SINGING, ETC)

-Taking my couchsurfing friends to local tourism destinations which are :
Mount Galunggung and Kampung Naga (Dragon village)
- sightseeing to local traditional market
-tasting local food / snack directly at the best places
-visiting batik factory
-joining yoga class
-having discussion
-visiting important buildings
- doing voluntary activity

ABOUT ME

I have a lot of interests:

I enjoy photography, collecting postcards/used tickets/bookmarks. We love dogs, and at our home we have 2 dogs, a small size dog Cihuahua called Cody and and a big size Labrador called Winter. We are non smoking people, so we prefer non smoking people staying at our place. I'm also a polyglot, I understand French, that's why many french stay at my place. I know some basic Italian since this language is related to french. Some people say I'm a "French specialist" :)
After your staying at our place it'd be better if you leave us reference, because we have noticed that some people don't care about it, it sucks!!!
I'm into different topics, I like learning languages, I have good level of English (that's my two cents) and medium level of French, foreign culture really impresses me and so does the food! So far we have met people from France (mostly), Italy, Hungary, Spain, Germany, Switzerland, Vietnam, The Netherlands, Russia, Belorussia, Czech Republic, Sweden, USA, Canada, Denmark, Puerto Rico, Portugal, Egypt, Norway, Argentina , Peru, Brazil, Colombia, Jordan, Iran..... My favorite topics are music, culture, football, books, films, songs, foreign food, etc. I'm also a gourmand and a gourmet as well, and for that I'm a tripadvisor insider and Google reviewer, I write review about restaurants, hotel and tourist attraction I have quite a few readers ..it means I know where to find good food.
We'd like to try your home cooking, as well. We'd be very glad to get souvenir from your own country such as magnetic fridge or postcards/bookmarks for our collection. Last but not least I'm a gourmand so I can show the the best places where to taste great local food even in an off beaten track! Our house is near train station, so it will help you with your mobility.
I'd be very happy to get souvenirs from your own country such as postcards, bookmarks,miniature of perfume, freezer magnet, or snacks

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To have a long train ride from Ho Chi Minh to Ninh Binh which is more than 39 hours, I guess it took the patience of a saint and I thanked god to have been able to pass it!
