About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Try to use all my time and most of my earned money to travel as much as I can before getting 30.

ABOUT ME

# My name is Long, I live in Germany and study economics. I love to travel (obviously) and to meet new people!
Feel free to check my Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/long.chv/ Maybe we share the same interests :-)
Mostly I’m busy weekdays cause of work and study. But at the weekend I’m mostly free and could show you around.
I got a train ticket where I can take you everywhere near my hometown for free (but only on weekends) so I can show you around a bit!
# I'm a gym addict, hell yeah doing like lifting and calisthenics. So if you're up we can hit the gym too.
I like to sing and play guitar (but I'm a beginner and learn to play songs only via youtube) Maybe you're a karaoke guy?
I love karaoke, don't even need alcohol to hit the stage! (yeah that’s so Asian right hahah) But entertaining people is part of my job!
# I'm very open-minded, you can talk to me like hours and I'm mostly one of these guys who do the first move!
# What can I tell you more, I love to cook, yeah - maybe we can cook together and talk about our travel experience then!
Feel free to send me a request when you're here around - I'm trying to host you if I can and don't forget I can host you only on weekends!

PHILOSOPHY

explore the ordinary! Get out of your comfort zone and find a home away from home!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

# honestly I just knew about this since 20th Dec, 2018. I never heard about CS before. So when I started my first solo trip I'd ask my friend for some advice. He always travels along solo so he recommended me Couchsurfing. It sounds weird to me, but when I downloaded it and explore the app I instantly fall in love with it. On the first day, when I used the app I got the chance to meet people through the hang out function. Since that moment, I wasn't alone anymore - every day I met new people, hanged out together, explored the city or just talked for hours. This changed my life, this app is so much fun! In the beginning, I was afraid to travel completely solo. Normally I always travel around with someone, but now, since I know CS I'm not that afraid anymore, I'm more excited! So for me is the main reason, why I'm on Couchsurfing now - to meet other people and explorer around the world!

# I'm fine with hosting people WITHOUT any references, cause I know how hard it was to find a host without any references. And how should you suppose to get a reference, if they only host people with references? Makes no sense right. For me is more important that you have a GOOD PROFILE which represents yourself and let me know more about you when I'm reading your profile. If you're going to send me a request without any references and a shitty profile that's an automatic decline! So please take your time to take care of your profile before sending any requests (not just for me, for other hosts too)

# PLEASE DON'T SEND ME RANDOM FRIEND REQUESTS IF WE HAVEN'T TEXT OR MEET EACH OTHER BEFORE
