Hi, I'm a frequent traveler and I have an apartment in SF that I share with my dog, Yuki and sometimes my boyfriend, Sam.

Couchsurfing has recently started making people like me, who exclusively host, pay a monthly fee. I am not willing to pay this company for the privilege of letting travelers stay for free in my house. Once the payment I made for this month (sept 2021) runs out, I will no longer be able to access my profile or see messages and requests.

However, I love to host travelers and would be happy to connect and coordinate through instagram. My username is RealMollyThomas so please feel free to message me there.

When you send me a message, please include the dates you would like to stay, where you are traveling from and what is bringing you to San Francisco, and your general plans for when you are visiting.

I cannot accept requests from:
-more than 1 traveler (sorry my place is not big enough to have 2 or more guests)
-anyone allergic to or scared of dogs
-non-international travelers (sorry Americans)
-anyone without proof of vaccination. Negative covid test is not sufficient.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have a decent couch in a fun (expensive) city and I would like to make connections with like minded travelers and increase my network for when I travel. I’m also doing road trips and camping in places close by, so having someone to join the group, share expenses is always nice.

Music, Movies, and Books

The Big Lebowski is the perfect movie. Dave Chappelle’s black kkk guy is the perfect sketch. Talking heads is the perfect band. Lolita isn’t the perfect book, but it’s my favorite. I’m willing to have my mind changed on any of these things if you’re up for a debate.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Surfed (waves not couches) on three continents, quit smoking, started traveling solo, started hosting

Teach, Learn, Share

As a host I try to make my guest feel relaxed and comfortable to ask for anything they need, so that they feel at home. As a guest I am enthusiastic and curious. If you are a skater then I can take you to some of the great skate parks and spots in San Francisco (I have spare boards too).

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like to bring a gift, invite my host to come along if I'm doing something that I think might interest them during my stay, and buy dinner/drinks.
