What do these numbers mean?
This summary is not a replacement for reading references; it's a quick summary to help you get started. At a glance, you can see how many references a member has, and how many of them are positive, neutral, and negative.
In the second line, you'll see how many references came from people who hosted this member, surfed with them, and traveled with them. These numbers won't always add up to the total: some references are not categorized, and some may be categorized as more than one thing.
When viewing this summary, don't jump to conclusions! Things that are negative for one person may be positive for another, and vice versa. It's important to read references carefully and evaluate what that information means to you. References (83)83Positive 0Neutral 0Negative

Nov 30, 2011 Positive I had a great oppertunity to know Albert and his lovely family during their trip in Guilin. They are very nice, easy going and always being so patient teaching me Spainish. Also, they were so nice for bring me a lovely T-Shirt that made by themself and I LOVE IT! As a guide, I was quite suprise by how well their itinerary was planed even it was their first time to visit!
Overall, I had a lovely time spending with Albert and his family and I also strongly suggest you to meet up with them if you can. Take care Albert! All the best!
 From Dorota i Ziemowit Barański Wroclaw, Poland
Nov 9, 2011 Positive Well, we were delayed at their place due to problems with our car and the reference is delayed too but still we are really grateful for hospitality we experienced in Lleida. You must know that Albert, Montse and Laura were waiting for us to the late evening, welcomed us with a simple but delicious dinner and find some time to talk with us even if next morning they were leaving to the mountains. We recommend this family as a hosts, especially if you are family too and if you have a chance to host them, don't hesitate, you won't regret. Dear Family Cortes, maybe one day you will think about polish mountains or you will join our canoeing trip (if it happens...). We will be happy to meet you again! Thank you very much!
 From Sloane Goldstein Huesca, Spain
Oct 17, 2011 Positive The family was extremely nice and welcomed me with open arms. Albert took me on a ferrada excursion with his daughter and the views were absolutely breathtaking. I couldn´t have asked for a better host.
 From Lilia Rodriguez Pahrump, United States
Oct 6, 2011 Positive Words cannot express how grateful my girls and I are with Albert, Montse, Laura, and Grandma. They not only opened the doors to there home, but they made us feel like family. We went to the center to all the wonderful shops in Leida and went to the unbelievable, breathtaking castle there. Will always cherish the wonderful memories and miss Montse's cooking:) Saludos a todos from the girls and I. Hope to see u soon
 From Miranda Krogstad Calgary, Canada
Sep 5, 2011 Positive Staying with Albert and his family was a fantastic experience. Incredibly hospitable and friendly, they welcomed me into their home and lives for 3 memorable days. They took me on a tour bus of Lleida, out to Figuerosa for a family dinner, and even to a fireworks show where we ran underneath the fireworks together. Absolutely unforgettable visit, and such great people.
 From Louisa Johnson Seattle, United States
Aug 19, 2011  Positive Albert and Montse were very welcoming and generous hosts! I loved my two days that I spent in Lleida and they made sure to tell me about everything I needed to see while I was there! They even took me to an amazing festival in a town that was close by. I really hope I can visit with them in Lleida again!
