🌞 I enjoy meeting people from different parts of the world.
Everyone grows up with different habits, values, and ways of thinking, and I find that fascinating. Sometimes the things I take for granted seem unusual to others, and what’s normal for them might surprise me too! I love discovering these cultural differences and learning the reasons behind them. Every conversation helps me understand the world a little better and makes me more open-minded.

I usually prefer to host travellers and people who already have references — makes things a bit easier, you know? :)
Sure, free accommodation is one of the biggest perks of this platform, but let’s be honest. It’s good to have a first impression before inviting someone into your home. 🙏🏼

Just getting started & wondering how to get references❓🤔
Ask your friends who use the app to write you one, or join some Couchsurfing meetups and start meeting people in real life. Boom — references unlocked! 🚀
