Hey guys,

Couchsurfing now offers one month free trial to users, new and existing, I guess it's a little too late

Guys,

Hangouts are back on couchsurfing after the update, I checked it today and it looks promessing, they exactly as they were before, only issue in that, there's few users, let's see how it goes in the future, I am quite optimistic that they finally heard some of our complains

Couchsurfing seems down today, I am trying to connect with my surfer today but it is lot working

Happy times

Hey Guys,

​

We are in the middle of pride month and I remember watching a video à out how everyone can show support by wearing a small piece of jewelry, bracelet or necklace with rainbows.

I want to buy one or two items to offer but I don't want to buy them online, do you know any area or store where I can buy those kind of stuff and my purchase still make sense

Thank you

Hey Guys,

​

Planning to enjoy fête de la musique this time outside, do you have any recommendations, feedback about the hidden gems we should check?

Hey Team,

Big fan of Brave, since yesterday when I open YouTube, I see a pop-up before the video starts that ask me kindly to move to the app, toi cannot close it until you refresh the page, I hope Brave team will be able to bypass this as well

Thank you all

Hey guys,

I am trying to give a chance to the new design and blaming myself for not being able to adapt but I was curious to check how verification is working and my surprise was when I saw that verification now cost 30$ a year.

I don't know what to say, very sad

Hey everyone,

After days of testing the app and navigating the new design, I noticed that hangout as we knew it totally disappeared and merged into events, now if you want to hangout spontaneously with more than one person, first you'll need to connect with him on hangout, then create an event on couchsurfring so others may join in. This solution is also answered on their FAQ blog.

I see users already started adapting and creating these daily events titled ( want to explore the area, do something,... Etc) I guess hangout lost its main purpose which was meeting people instantly without a proper event preparation.

On a positive note, since the update, a lot of bugs got fixed.

Let's see how it goes

Hey,

Last time I tried pour l'amour du burger Belleville, I was awesome, I want to try tonight specimen burgersig anyone is keen to join hit me up, we will try to be a a group of 2-4 people max

See you

Guys this may be super subjective but what's the best burger place in Paris, except the ones promoted by influcencers?

Team,

While it is healthy to keep ranting about how soulless and empty the new design is, I would like to start a brainstorming thread, what does couchsurfing has(except the huge awesome community) that other alternatives don't, maybe, we can find out how to prioritize certain features to be implemented in bewelcome and couchers, in my case I think about two things already:

Couchsurfing has events and many subscribers

Couchsurfing has been promoted by many travel vloggers, can't bewelcome, couchers do the same or travel vloggers are only looking for profit?

I am friends with many travel vloggers on couchsurfing, I will try to reach out to them to understand where do they stand, why do they keep using couchsurfing and not the other alternatives

Let me know , your thoughts

edit: Please bare with me, if you spot any typos please forgive me, i am riding a bicycle and I couldn't wait to be on my laptop to write down this thought properly

Hey couchsurfers and future couchers I guess 😂😂,

I contacted support because I couldn't access despite having paid my yearly due tax, this is what I got, I hope they will solve it quickly and for the love of us, I hope they change that soulless theme 🙏

Hi XYZ,

Thank you for reaching out, and we're truly sorry for any inconvenience this massive upgrade has caused. Trust us, it is worth it! Please cut us a little slack for just a couple of days as we deal with some growing pains.

We're aware of an issue that is preventing certain members from accessing the site, despite having a valid, paid membership. For the majority of people impacted by this, your account and payment are both in good standing.

Our team is actively working on a fix, and full access will be restored within the next couple of days. We are doing our best to support the surge in community
