This hosting with couchsurfing is a verbatim account of the oddities that have happened to me in meeting people through the international platform that connects travelers and hosts willing to host. I specify that I use it mostly to meet someone from the place I am visiting, without sleeping over. I have not hosted anyone for some time now, but who knows in the future. It can be a means to meet interesting people, for better or worse. In the post covid period the site has had an inexorable slump, I hope it will recover.

Please note the audio is in Italian.
