couchsurfing survey

Hi there!

I am Lydia, a senior from Sun Yat-sen University, majoring in Tourism Management. Back in 2014, I took part in the school exchange program and lived in Europe for half a year. I travelled around, then I discovered how amazing it was to couchsurf. We talked about anything. We shared music and movies and beers and those lovely, and cheerful days. Due to my great love, I've decided to write my thesis about it. Your hosting experience arouse my interest so could you participate in my research please? Just share 10min and complete this questionnaire would do me a great favor! Thanks!

Lydia
