Hallo zusammen!

 

Have you ever heard of Couchsurfing? No, well the idea is very simple, yet extremely enlightening: you make your couch/bed/mattress available to host people FOR FREE and in exchange you get “ideally” a couch for free everywhere in the world.

The concept goes beyond the idea of sleeping somewhere for free. It actually implies to get to know locals, to share their lives for a couple of days and of course to leva them a good, representative, small but unforgettable “piece of you”.

The community grew bigger and bigger and it is possible to subscribe to “groups”: what is interesting from a Language-learning point of view is that in big cities, such as München, there is a lively community that organizes language exchange meetings where you can attend if you are willing to learn German and teach some of your language. And of course drink a beer!

The “Sprachslernenstreffen” occurs every time in a different location and usually once a week.

As an active Couchsurfer I host (and surf) as much as i can! Here’s a pic with our last guests Timur and Olesia, from Kiyv, Ukraine!
