Couchsurfing Flow Code

For a Beautiful and Respectful Connection Between Host & Guest

As a HOST
(Opening your home and heart)

1. Be Clear in Your Profile
Share your expectations, availability, house rules, and cultural habits (like “shoes off at the door”). Mention the kind of guests you enjoy hosting. Are you into quiet types, social ones, independent adventurers?

2. Set the Tone Early
A warm welcome and a quick tour go a long way. Show how things work: the kitchen, shower, Wi-Fi, recycling, etc. Encourage your guest to make and fold their own sleeping area, especially in shared spaces so it blends smoothly into daily routines.

3. Offer Space Beyond Just a Couch
Guests need emotional and physical space. Be present, but allow rest and quiet when needed. Little touches, like a towel, a blanket, or a simple cup of tea can turn hospitality into heartfulness.

4. Share Your World
Invite your guest into your life: show them local gems, introduce them to friends, take a walk, share a meal. Swap stories and stay curious about theirs. This is the soul of Couchsurfing.

5. Respect Boundaries
You’re not running a hotel but make sure your guest feels welcome and safe. Good communication is key. Check in with how they’re feeling and make space for honest sharing.

6. Coming, Going & Flowing
Have a quick chat about going in and out of the home. You can loan a spare key, guest can notify when they're going and coming.

As a GUEST
(Entering someone’s sanctuary)

1. Read the Host’s Profile
Thoroughly Tailor your request. Mention shared interests or something you’re curious about. Avoid copy-paste messages, authenticity matters and makes you stand out.

2. Arrive with Gratitude, Not Demands
Be flexible with plans. Remember you’re being welcomed, not entitled. A small gift, snack, or handwritten note from your country can create instant warmth.

3. Contribute Actively
Offer help washing dishes, cooking, tidying up, without being asked. These small actions show big heart.

4. Be Present
If your host is open, spend time together. Couchsurfing is not just a free bed, it’s about connection. Share music, food, ideas. Be a spark, not a weight. Invite them to your day’s adventures, even if they decline: a walk, yoga, shopping, a movie, a bike ride, or just chilling out.

5. Respect the Rhythm
Follow house rules, respect quiet hours, and always ask before using or sharing anything in the house. Try to tune in to your host’s rhythm, when they sleep, when they wake, how they start their day. Avoid disturbing their morning groove or evening wind-down.

For Both HOST & GUEST
(The magic lies in...)
Listening: Truly hearing each other, not just waiting to speak.
Adaptability: No two experiences are alike. Flow with what comes.
Cultural Humility: Stay open to different lifestyles, thoughts, and expressions.
Kindness: A smile, a check-in, a simple offer, it all matters.
Shared Meals: Even fruit or snacks become special when offered with love.

Bonus Thought
Every Couchsurfing experience is a tiny ripple in the great ocean of peace; One human meeting another in trust. Treat it as sacred, because it is.
