And just in case also find yourself a hotel (write down an address), so you would have a backup option if something goes wrong with the CS. <br /><br />Good luck!Ragne Kabanovahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15971001585538380281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5818028816916708587.post-45343920709986996352011-06-11T03:43:52.468+03:002011-06-11T03:43:52.468+03:00Hi,

Any tips you can give me?<br />Thank youArilenahttp://alliestuveyo.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5818028816916708587.post-82955906986662765582010-12-26T23:38:38.412+02:002010-12-26T23:38:38.412+02:00Hello Rachid!
I totally agree that as much as the...Hello Rachid!<br /><br />I totally agree that as much as there are different people in the world, there will be different approaches to couchsurfing. And it's totally ok, as long as it stays in the spirit of the CS. I didn't publish that story because i wanted to humiliate Hassan or embarrass him, or tell that all couch hosts in Morocco are bad. Quite the opposite, i don't even doubt there are some really genuinely lovely people out there. But Hassan behaved so rudely and horribly that i felt he was quite worth getting his face plastered in the internet and name shamed. He actually was later leaving me comments under this blog post calling me a whore and bitch, plus a lot of graphic sex related abuse. And i've also seen some internet pages where he claims that his a true victim here because some white bitch is out to get him and so on. Normal person does not behave like that, normal person apologizes for example and that would be the end of this story. <br /><br />I've been hosting more that 50 people by now from over 20 different countries, plus surfing myself as well, i'm glad to see that people like Hassan are very much rarity. It is truly a great way to meet people and i will definitely look you up when i'm heading to Morocco again! <br /><br />Thanks for commenting!Ragne Kabanovahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15971001585538380281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5818028816916708587.post-54565499704352172972010-12-26T18:45:43.946+02:002010-12-26T18:45:43.946+02:00nice and interesting comment and i agree with you ...nice and interesting comment and i agree with you in most of what you wrote, i am a CS member in Morocco as well and i had a looot of experiences and never charge guests simply because it is not the CS spirit at all. i had met this Guy called Hassan and i heard from him a different story of quitting CS community!!! it is interesting how life proves us different things. i can also say that CSers differ from a place to another and there's nothing to do with country or skin colour, it remains a matter of education, personality, tenets and aims in life.<br /><br />i used to invite people to my place starting from the "Nearby Travellers" but i discovered that CS has a CouchRequest system and who wants to stay with you will definitely CS request you.<br /><br />CS totally changed my life to the best and got into the dream of Nomadic life, learning from people and travelleing within my house. i had hosted people from all continents and had met great people as strange people too...it is life.<br /><br />well; your story here is nice and thank you for sharing that BUT never forget that people differ everywhere...^_^.<br /><br />welcome to Morocco anytime and have a nice day.<br />greetings from the land of peace!<br />Rachid (oulissfan)<br />Peace & hugsoulissfanhttp://www.couchsurfing.org/people/oulissfan/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5818028816916708587.post-15094144696442518672010-05-14T17:29:09.001+03:002010-05-14T17:29:09.001+03:00What an interesting story!

Your blog was very helpful, thanx.
Also, I...Hey,<br /><br />Your blog was very helpful, thanx. <br /><br />Also, I myself do tend to raise my eyebrows over couchsurfing and miscommunication, especially in third world countries. We might all be travelers, but we do come from different socio economic backgrounds.<br /><br />As for the French girl, ignorance is bliss...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
