We have both private and shared rooms for short term or long term residence at our homes. Our vibrant community of internationals is a home away from home for our international friends, offering a place to feel safe while traveling in a foreign country. Our homes are a co-living community of international students, workers and travellers in Detroit and New York City. All our residents attend English school and enjoy daily English classes, educational activities, and participation in intercultural activities.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would love to get connected to the couch surfing community in order to know about events, invite visitors to the house to expose my projects to them and maybe ask for a little help too! Visitors would join in with other guests and volunteers, helping around the house and cooking a little, getting to know new people and the area we live.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Created a community for international visitors to the United States to learn more about our country, experience our culture, make friends and teach each other about their own home countries and cultures.

Teach, Learn, Share

We have an English-only policy in our house, to allow internationals to practice conversations in English with each other and native speakers, alongside regular English classes for anyone who wants them.
