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.

Henrique hosted my boyfriend and I for a couple nights in Rio, Henrique's hometown. It was really nice staying at his place, he is very hospitable.. always offering us a beer, introducing new exotic fruits, or making sure we know where the beach is (haha). Very fun and interesting to get to know you Henrique! Thank you and hope to meet again sometime in our travels!

Henrique and his girlfriend were very pleasant guests. Even though I had a lot of work to do while they were staying, we still were able to find some time to discuss some very interesting things and their life in Brazil. They were very respectful and talkative. Thank you for your company, welcome anytime back!

He has a great heart. A person who is willing to walk alongside the beach of Copacabana in the warmth of spring hugs to strangers is certainly someone who has positive energy. We met during a campaign free hugs in Rio de Janeiro by members of couchsurfing.
Cheers!

Henrique and his family were so welcoming, that we immediately felt home. We were pleased to join the family celebration full of amazing brazilian food and friendly family members. Henrique took us to see Maracatu in Lapa, we went to Copacabana beach and rode the train to St. Teresa together. We enjoyed every minute of every day's common dinner and discussions with Henrique and his family. Henrique has a strong CS spirit and so do his parents. It was hard to leave, thanks for everything Henrique!

He was hosting a friend in common, and when she came to my city to visit an indian village it he came with her, and we spent the day all together there, and were hosted by the indians! He was part of that HammockSurfing we invented that day, and the next day I hosted him in my house. He is a rather excentric person for some things, but a very communicative and intelligent man. A great pleasure to meet and to be hosted with him!
