Thank you for clicking on my profile.
I'm C$ and BW member as well. Also I'm Workaway.

I live GIRONA's outdoors, in a residential area named MAS LLUNES, in a forest, @ 12 km from Girona, @ 90 km from Barcelona, @ 70 km from France, and @ 25 from the Costa Brava beaches.

Cyclists, motorists and travelers with its own car, will have always available: water, shower, food and rest area. If I were full, you could sleep in the wood cabin.

We appreciate CS turns OFF the CELL phone and WIRELESS during the night. Thanks. You will be provided of ETHERNET cable.

And of course I don't expect the same from my hosts when I'm traveling. I adapt perfectly.

My name is Luisa (indi is my nickname) so if you write my right name in your Couch Request I'll know you have read my profile.

Three days might be too, it depends if we get on well...

I fully prefer you send me a Private Message than a Request here.

Personal Description

Thank you for clicking on my profile.
I'm a normal person (or I would like to think so).
http://www.bewelcome.org/members/india
Be Welcome home!

How I Participate in CS

Hosting as much as I'm able to host, and travel being your guest and your host when you are traveling here (Volunteers from Workaway, BeWelcome, and C$ depending on his profile).

Couchsurfing Experience

I've just finished my log cabin (handmade) to be able to host more BeWelcome members at the same time than CouchSurfing members.
The more the merrier!

One Amazing Thing I've Seen or Done

Casey has told me that the C$' sold operation was legal.
But was moral? And was ethic? Our efforts and dedication has been solded :(

Opinion on the Couchsurfing.org Project

C$ is not as friendly as it was in the past. That's true.
Not now, from we were sold. Not anymore. That's true.
Our effort, dedication and money we spend with our guests has been betrayed and exploited us without our consent. And that is also true. Sad but true.

TRAVELED: Canada, England, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, Switzerland, United States

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.

Luisa hosted me when I was looking for a place in Barcelona. I ended up spending half of my time in Girona. I have nothing but positive things to say about Luisa. She made me feel confortable and constantly reminded me to treat her home as mine. Although I feel like I may have took advantage of her generosity with the wine :)
While my opinions and hers on many topics were not the same, she none the less did not hold it against me.
We visited quite a few places and she even urged me out of my confort zone on a few occasions.
I would recommend that ANYONE stay with her. It was an experience I'm sure I will never forget. Hopefully I'll make my way back to Girona some time.

She hosted me for 3 days in Girona. I was thinking to spend 1 day in Girona and 2 days in Barcelona and finally I spent the 3 days with her in Girona. She helped me at the last minute giving me a place where to stay. She is an open-minded, friendly, generous and interesting person. I really enjoyed my time next to her. We were talking about a lot of different and interesting things. I highly recommend visiting her. We went to the beach in Costa Brava and we had a lot of fun. I´ll be back again for sure. Next time I´ll visit her or She will visit me I´ll cook a beautiful paella.

P.S: Thanks a million for everything Luisa, you are the best. I think we are playing in the same league: The happiness league. See you soon!!!
