Couch-surfing in Australia, summer 2011
My couch-surfing experiences in Australia in summer 2011.
This is all about: couchsurfing.org.
Every one of my hosts was very friendly and very welcoming.
Firstly, there was a very high level of trust. They accepted me as a guest and let me in their private spaces, even so my profile was absolutely empty in the beginning and I never managed to request a couch much earlier than a week before I got there.
They all had a quite relaxed way of life, some extended this attitude to the household and in particular to the cleaning of their house or flat and the bathroom (we do not talk about toilets right now ;-( )
You meet and get to know many more people than just your hosts, there a friends, colleges, relatives, co-surfers and many more.
Which I liked very much, and I enjoyed the company and fellowship of co-surfer and friends.
You should love pets, all sorts of pets, plenty of pets and a weird mixture of pets 🙂
