CouchSurfing apreciation thread

I just went out to dinner tonight with a giant group of couch surfers. it ended up being a $900 check!!
i was crapping my pants when we got the bill but there was no problems what so ever. everyone was totally responsible.
not only did we have enough for the bill plus tip.. there was an extra $50 on top of that for the wait staff.
ive been hanging out with surfers almost exclusively for a while now because they are the most laid back, free spirited, down to earth people i have ever met.
anyone else on here a surfer?
if yes, you are AWESOME! 
if not, sign up for that shit! http://www.couchsurfing.org
there is a giant couch surfing party going on in Philadelphia next weekend. all are welcome!

there is absolutely those too.
and you dont have to allow people to stay at your place if you sign up.. i dont 
its a fantastic way to just hang out with people you never would have met before.
probably the best way to see the world.. you are always chillin with locals.. none of that touristy nonsense.

I signed up a few years ago but I haven't done much with my profile. The city I am living in has a couple of surfers I know from the folk festival community but aside from that not much action here. I am interested in becoming active though in case I ever do some traveling.

i had to check this shit out just for fun
apparently there is a guy who lives within a few miles of me who vaguely hints in his profile that hes all about "alternative healing" and "questioning things". he says more than just that, not to mention the fact that he looks like hes straight from the 60's.
i might just have to chill with this guy and see if he can hang

There are very few free-loading "dirty hippies" trying to score a couch. It's mostly composed of young, intelligent, financially secure, and well-traveled people who enjoyed like-minded company.
