Podcasts about couchsurfers

Most of the time, beauty lies in the simplest of things. 大多數時候，美存在於最簡單的事物中。 It was actually really nice to be able to go to the hosts' place after my day's visit. It gets dark really quickly during winters in Europe, usually before the end of the working day around 5pm. The weather was often miserably cold and rainy; just the sort of weather for returning to the host's place where we either shared food or I cooked for them. 事實上，可以在一天的遊覽完畢時，回到我沙發主人的家感覺真的很好。在歐洲的冬天天黑的很快，差不多在一天結束工作之前就會全黑了。天氣也經常很冷又下雨。當天公不作美的時候，回到主人家可以一起分享食物或者我煮飯給他們吃，實在太棒了。 This time in Switzerland I even had the opportunity to share amazing special food from my hosts, like Matthew in Bern who taught me how to make Raclette, which looks like Swiss Grill with cheese using a special oven. While I stayed with Josh in Lucerne, who's from Hawaii but lived in Switzerland for many years, he made lao lao, a Hawaiian meal wrapped with taro leaves. It was really impressive. I will never forget its fragrance and taste. It was so delicious too. 這次在瑞士我有幸能享受到來自我沙發主人許多美味又特別的食物，像是在Bern的Matthew教我如何吃Raclette，一種用使用特別烤盤和用奶酪製作的瑞士燒烤，還有當我在魯森和來自夏威夷的Josh一起分享他做的嘮嘮，是一種用芋頭葉子包起來的夏威夷傳統食物。真的超級棒。我永遠都不會忘記那個香味還有味道。吃起來也十分美味。 Saving money and sharing food with Couchsurfers is great, but nothing compared to the rewards of hearing the stories of people who live there and exchanging experiences. For me, it was also an opportunity to share and contribute my experiences and knowledge. 利用沙發衝浪的方式來省錢和分享食物雖然很棒，但是分享住在當地人們的生活和交換彼此的經驗是什麼也比不上的。對於我來說，也是一個可以分享和貢獻我經驗和知識的機會。 Josh was a very special man and he shared many stories with me. He was an artist and was really kind when we met. A few years ago, when Josh was a successful entrepreneur he experienced a tragic family bereavement which left him feeling sad, angry and lost. He made a few big lifestyle changes including moving to Switzerland and was now ready to share his stories so as to help other people heal. I have been a podcaster for many years and I want to use this knowledge to help others too. Over the years I've benefited tremendously by telling my own healing stories, helping others and making a living. One night, we sat down and created a podcast together and organized the ideas. It was a very beautiful moment that I will never forget. Josh是一個非常特別的人，他和我分享了許多故事。他是一個藝術家而且當我們見面的時候非常的友善。幾年前，Josh是個成功的生意人卻遭遇了一個悲劇般的喪親事件讓他傷心、生氣又失落。他做了許多生活型態的大改變，其中包括搬到瑞士來，現在他也準備好分享自己的故事來幫助別人療癒。我作為一個播主已經多年，而且我也希望用我的知識來幫助別人。幾年來，我也受益於講述自己的療癒故事，幫助別人來謀生。有一晚，我們就坐下來幫助他創造一個播客然後組織一些想法。那是一個非常美麗，而且讓我永遠不會忘記的時刻。 Stay tuned...there's much more to come! In the next episode I'll be sharing a story of a well-traveled single mom from Switzerland. 敬請期待，還有好多故事呢！ 下一集我會和你分享一個旅行經驗非常豐富的瑞士單親媽媽的故事。 「學英語環遊世界」最新節目收聽最新節目 Spotify https://reurl.cc/m9KdgG Apple Podcast https://reurl.cc/Kj161j Google Podcast https://reurl.cc/q8WD7D 喜馬拉雅FM https://reurl.cc/j5Kdz2

MEET EMILY BRANCELEmily (and her husband Stefan) were my first CouchSurfing hosts that I stayed with for three weeks in Detroit. I was blown away by how open and genuine they both were and for the zeal with which they both follow their sparks of passion and curiosity! For Emily, that might look like raising quails, to fostering greyhounds, to gardening and growing her own food, to taking in CouchSurfers. I am forever grateful for how they opened their lives and home to me and for the fresh perspective they offered of what it looks like to release external expectations and live your most authentic, inspired life. When I asked Emily to describe herself she said: I'm a simple Midwesterner with an open mind and heart. My motto is short: doing the best I can, one day at a time.IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL HEAR: - What "wealth" means to her (not in the monetary sense).- Her journey from being a shy kid to a gregarious teenager attached to others' approval to finally releasing expectations and embracing who she really is.- How vulnerability can spark connection, acceptance and support. - Beautiful detours that have led her to amazing nature hikes in Columbia to marrying her husband. - How her and her partner redefined marriage to create an ethically non-monogamous relationship that works for THEM. - Insights on honoring yourself and the seasons you go through in life. and so much more!Content Warning: Sexual Abuse.

He started out a social experiment lasting 6 months where he hosted close to 40 people, eventually became a way to reaffirm his faith in humanity. Tune in to episode 7 to find out how he crossed paths again with one of his Couchsurfers 2 years later. You can follow Utsav on his Instagram handle: @whywetravel42 You can listen to this show and other awesome shows on the IVM Podcasts app on Android: https://ivm.today/android or iOS: https://ivm.today/ios, or any other podcast app. You can check out our website at http://www.ivmpodcasts.com/

Sim and Nathan are Couchsurfers who stayed with Katie and me in Hong Kong. This was their final stop on a journey of more than a year. We had an awesome discussion about a variety of topics, ranging from traveling for free to exploding Pinto gas tanks.

in which we speak to Servas International President Jonny about the 2018 General Assembly, the future of Servas and...his passion for sauna!

"I never thought I was going to travel two or three years ago...it just came up to me...it was some sort of instinct saying 'Let's do it. Let's go for it.'" - Ryoji Yoshimura Ryoji Yoshimura (@ryoji_o_yoshimura) is a veteran couchsurfing host based in Kitakyushu, Japan. Since 2015, he has hosted over 40 travelers in his home. These travelers are commonly called "couch surfers." A couch surfer is a person who stays at a local's place, often on their couch or extra mattress, for free. Meeting travelers from around the world, Ryoji felt inspired to see a bit of the world for himself. After trips to The Philippines and South Korea, Ryoji took a year off from school to travel. In order to do this, he first spent four months working in Australia. Once he had enough money he put these funds towards visiting places like the United Kingdom, Malaysia, Singapore, and Iran. Ryoji has fascinating experiences from couchsurfing in different countries and continuing to host travelers in his home. The lessons he learned throughout his gap year changed his perspectives and helped him develop a deeper understanding of who he is. He is now finishing up his university studies in Kitakyushu, which I think is a great testament to not put your dreams on hold.   Some of the things we discuss include: Experiences from couchsurfing: both hosting and being hosted. Hitchhiking around Taiwan Tools for learning a new language Developing a better understanding of yourself Global connections and relationships And so much more   You can find the full episode description, show notes and links at https://edgeofcomfort.com/eocp3/

She doesn't couch surf herself but hosts dozens of people from around the world at her house in Amsterdam.  She's a travel writer and an American expat and writes all about her new home in Amsterdam at www.wordgeisha.com She's amazing to listen to and her stories are fantastic! What is this Couchsurfing thing you ask? Couchsurfing International Inc. is a hospitality exchange and social networking website. The website provides a platform for members to "surf" on couches by staying as a guest at a host's home, host travelers, or join an event. Melissa is a host in Couchsurfing and will talk about how she chooses who she hosts. She also shares some not so good experiences with Couchsurfers and also the super interesting and fun ones. She talked about her rules as a host which make it much easier for you to figure out how you should get into the Couchsurfing world easier. She also answered a lot of questions about Couchsurfing and why Couchsurfing is not for her. She also gave advice for first time couch surfers and those who would like to try Couchsurfing.  If you want to get in touch with me head over to Travis Longmore Photography.
