One Amazing Thing I've Seen or Done

Oh man, do we have a lifetime to spend listening to all the list or we want to keep getting amused?

Opinion on the CouchSurfing.org Project

It's a very nice tool as long as it doesn't get a catalogue of identities.

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.

Federica hosted us in Lecco. She was ours emergency hoster and saved our trip! Nevertheless, she cooked us traditional meal of Lecco and we had also a long chat with great Italian wine. She is smiley, open, friendly and talkative person. I am happy we had an opportunity to meet her :)

Federica is a most thoughtful host. My UNIQUE experience with her and her friends was one of Awe and Awakening of Passion and Authenticity. I surrendered to her perspective on Italian culture (fast paced and seizing each moment without hesitation, while being at ease) and loved it. I felt like family. I wish you abundance, success and joy. You are a special person!

Federica was nice enough to take me all over Lecco, high and low. She welcomed me into her home and introduced me to her family and friends. She's interesting and very easy to get along with. Overall, an incredible first impression for me and couchsurfing.

Federica has a great knowledge of food and a really nice way of describing it. Great fun to talk to and hang out with. Also, she makes a powerful lentil stew. See you again sometime!

It was really lovely to meet Frederica again. We met briefly at the CS summer camp. Thanks for opening my eyes re: pancake fillers, I've introduce 3 people since then to your ideas! Great company, I felt so comfortable with her and her friend Peitro, a pleasure to host them!
