Welcome to Couchsurfing

[@JonathanNYCity]

All this talk- it's wonderful, it's awesome, we love it! And not a single word about how it actually works! Amazing.

[@morpmorpt4746]

yeah pretty much said nothing.

[@tanishbajaj4952]

@@jwaxmcgeeg9706 what works then?

[@momomoDividedBy3]

When I host a couchsurfer I can always feel a bit of their journey and interesting experiences they've been through. It is also a really good way of stretching your comfort zone, improving yourself in a way. Great idea, 90% great people (which is far more better then in regular life), absolutely worth it. Just keep in mind that when you are a guest you have to follow the host's house rules and when you are a host that you are giving a gift, and when something is a gift you don't expect anything in return for it. Cheers.

[@sunshine_veevs]

I understand coachsurfers benefit a lot but I can't grasp what hosts gain from it. Interesting reading your comment.

[@fadikhawaja4570]

Yes

[@klamup]

@@sunshine_veevs you get to show off your nunchuck skills. Also on a darker note: you can take people from other countries to Taco Bell and tell them it's THE fancy restaurant.. a movie comes to mind.

[@Calotcha]

@@sunshine_veevs It's about connecting with others, getting to know other people, which translates as knowing more about your own self. Yes, knowing others is significant of knowing your own self; if knowing yourself through others is your thing, of course.

Been hosting and couchsurfing for over 12 years and just now discover this channel 😁

[@jerediahgonzalez2315]

Is it like Airbnb where you charge people?

[@ПолинаФеофанова-е9л]

I've spent many years on your platform and I've got one question about couchsurfing concept (to be honest not only me, most of my friends who are still using your platform and who left it are curious). In the beginning of the coronavirus quarantine your platform which represents free and noble friendship and connection of people from all around the world blocked my page and started to ask money because of this difficult coronavirus situation.It was a strange surprise - your team even didn't let people know about this decision beforehand to give them a possibility to remove their accounts. Ok, I started to pay this monthly tax. Now coronavirus is away and your free amazing page is still taking money. Could you please explain how this action combines with your Free, Safe and Trusty concept? Regards Polina

[@lp0129]

Hi Polina, I'm was going to join, luckily I seen your comment. Not to sure now, will probably look for an alternative website which is currently FOC. Thanks

[@raquelcoler1]

@@lp0129 what is this FOC? WILL CHECK IT...

[@raquelcoler1]

Honestly, i will just remove my account then.. Cause there's no way i would pay for that platform, if i offer free nice accomodations, i also want free website. As simple as that, if the intention is to monetize, i use airbnb They changed their intentions, and were not transparent with the free hosts there!!! Ridiculous Couchsurfing! Corona blah blah!! . Hey There's an option nowadays to cancel your account..

Taking my data and not letting me delete it. Okay, that's on me I should've read the small prints. Saying you will never make us pay then changing your mind, preventing us to access the site, therefore losing our contacts unless we pay ? No. Also 1:48 to 1:53 You might want to delete this part.

[@jwaxmcgeeg9706]

Just keep bombing them. Hit the red delete account button 10 or 20 a day for a month.. It worked for me.

[@mirshahinoorali6449]

Awesome Idea

[@irishka_zolotse]

So how exactly does this work? $60 or how much for verification at what point? How do the hosts measure risk of letting strangers into their home/"castle" or vice versa, how would guest know the dwelling is a safe place and not some awful people trafficking location? Too good 2 be true...

[@loooopeytunes]

You need to talk and make friends with the host before entering their homes. The host will judge whether you're a good or a bad person based on your conversation and manners. Your host also probably asked for your id and stuff

[@loooopeytunes]

And it also depends on the country and the host verification status and reviews. Crime levels on a developed countries and poor countries will definitely be far different. The traveler will tell and review about the good things the host have served to them

[@acethesly]

They don't say anything about cost, just some experience, no actual details about whether it's for anyone or only those with a big travel budget looking for alternatives to hotels and airbnb.

[@Marsattacks79]

It is free. Hosts open their couches or hones to the surfer for free.

[@duppyduppy01]

Is it a free stay, and in exchange for what? Thank you. I'm trying to travel international the cheapest way possible. :O)

[@natelegancecarnival]

I get the idea and sounds great but I would be a bit concerned about the safety side of things.Is this a bit like airbnb where people get background checked ?

[@MisionTerceraCanaria]

This was highly recommended to me but then I saw that nowhere do they outline any cost implication - even searching how much on the faq is hard to finally find out that they charge a fee for verification... if it’s not clear and up front, it’s misleading and a cheap tactic. I’m out.
