At least a couple of references and some couchsurfing experience is definitely a plus, when sending a request. Last minute requests are very welcome! Since you've probably been skipping through profiles for the last couple of hours, this will be brief. Here's a list of things we like: Feminism, cats, video games, gay subculture, graffiti, riding the subway, techno-clubs in Berlin, Berlin in general, politics, antifacism, Israel, sewing, Hummus, popculture, Hong Kong, Lady Gaga, Orphan Black, Champagne, reading newspaper, a clean kitchen, NYC, Drag, polyamory. We do get along with a lot of people, unless you are a sexist guy who brags about his last "score", are homo- or transphobic in any way or don't clean up your shit (which, to be fair, all of our guests usually do :).
