My description is terribly outdated....like 10 years, a lot has happened since then, but I'm too lazy for a big update...

CURRENT MISSION

Hello, I'm the founder of Hospitality Club (http://www.hospitalityclub.org) - the original hospitality exchange ("couchsurfing") website. Now 700,000 members, started in 2000 (4 years before CS). You are welcome there and to visit me!

ABOUT ME

At the moment, I am spreading the idea of hospitality
exchange across this little planet - people, open your
homes to strangers and meet other people!! :-) ==>
www.hospitalityclub.org

Same idea as this site, but started 4 years before (in 2000), 100,000s of members, not as US/Anglo-centric as CS. We all work together in a large team of volunteers.

I love traveling and hitchhiking, politics, work with exchange students, Indonesian clove cigarettes, ... - more about me on my personal homepage http://www.veit.net
My email is veit@hospitalityclub.org, phone +49 173 7749365, Facebook http://www.facebook.com/vkuehne

PHILOSOPHY

Die Welt kann veraendert werden, Zukunft ist kein Schicksal.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Please join the Hospitality Club group here on Couchsurfing: http://www.couchsurfing.com/group.html?gid=10 and of course feel free to add me as a friend if we know each other online or offline!

[Sorry if it takes me a long time to add you as a friend, and the description isn't that great - it's a bit too much hassle writing a good comment here. I DO try to write good comments on HC though ;-)]

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have stayed with wonderful people all over the world, and that's why I started the Hospitality Club - to give everyone the possibility to experience the same hospitality I experienced.

If you like the idea of hospitality exchange, please check out the club - especially if you travel anywhere out of North America (Europe, Asia, South America) you will find many more members there than here on CS.
