CouchSurfing! Seeing the world through the eyes of locals…
Ever wanted to have a local travel guide everywhere in the world? Here’s something I ran into about an year ago and have fallen in love with ever since. It’s called CouchSurfing and it’s an online community of travel-loving people.
Officially, "CouchSurfing is a worldwide network for making connections between travelers and the local communities they visit". Unofficially, it’s a belief-system… a way of life… and a passion that has overcome roughly half a million people from 225 countries… and the numbers just keep on increasing by roughly 1000 per day! (I know since I now volunteer on the site, sending welcome messages to new members or as we call ourselves, CouchSurfers)
Somebody’s gonna get a hurt…real bad!
This guys is GOOOOOOOOOOD! If you’re an immigrant, or just living in another country for a while (irrespective of where you are from and where you’re living), you’re gonna love this. Russell Peters is a Canadian stand-up comedian with Indian roots. Having grown up in a multi-ethnic neighborhood in a pre-dominantly white country, this guy brings his keen observations and amazing wit to play and makes you crack twice every second… a definite MUST-SEE…
