Some interesting couchsurfers, in no particular order....

Baggins, username: BAGGINS (Florence)
Paul Jones, username: WEEDEATER (Phoenix, Arizona)
Lukearthwalker, LUKEARTHWALKER (Ventura, California)
Aleksi Saarela, -ALEXI- (Porvoo, Eastern Uusimaa, Finland)
Michael Araya, JICCO (Addis Abeba)
Ray Misra, CRAYONPONYFISH (Seattle)
Claudia, CLOUDREAMR (New York)
Kevin Solway, KSOLWAY (Tasmania)

Some profiles are visible to couchsurfer members only. Otherwise, do a search, and enter the username into the NAME search field.

Any other interesting ones? Anyone here host/couchsurf?

Interesting ... relative to many couchsurfers, but also generally.

My profile (KELLY JONES) is probably less interesting, as I tend not to say much. People mistake my quietness for nothing happening. It often surprises me that people would assume quietness or saying nothing means absence of evaluation, since the direct opposite is true, and in fact, very much so.

But thinking takes effort, it takes conscious and deliberate effort. The more chatter, the less thought, and the less value. But why blame a thinker for evaluating in silence? Why assume that silence means there is nothing going on?

How do you find individual people there? I used the search functions and kept getting no results.

Hover on "Surf/Host".
Choose "CouchSearch".
- Has couch? [Drop-down menu: "Coffee, Maybe, Yes, Definitely"]
- NAME [Enter username]

Click on button "List surfers on next page".

Some profiles may be viewed by non-members. Otherwise, you will need to sign up.

KSOLWAY is "Travelling" so you will need to choose "Travelling" instead of "Coffee, Maybe, Yes, Definitely".


Hope that's clear enough.

Baggins may be the least interesting in the list.
