COUCHSURFING IS NOT FREE. COUCHSURFING IS PAYABLE TO ALL USERS!
The video "COUCHSURFING IS NOT FREE. COUCHSURFING IS PAYABLE TO ALL USERS!" serves one goal which is to spread awareness how the platform was sold for profit. NOW THE DIRECTORS OF COUCHSURIFNG HIT THE LAST PIN IN ITS COFFIN.
After creating a cheap version of facebook by creating the "Friends" option and allowed dodgy users to keep hovering around with their fake and pervert profiles among the true travelling spirits eventually made the platform sort of like tinder 2.0 -the backpacker edition.
Frankly, these things never diverted my fellow tramper and my soul`s attention and love from this service which is rather a way of living!
Yesterday, the directors announced that due to the "crisis: caused by COVID-19 has put the service to danger where they are no longer able to meet their "financial needs"....
Well, guess what!? Before it became a for-profit organisation, it had been always able to meet its needs! It is frustrating how greed poisoned perhaps the biggest help for broken travellers!
Couchsurfing was always a way of travelling, expression of lifestyle and mindset. In fact, it became a brand and people used to be "wearing" it proudly!
We, the couchsurfing family is upset and angry at the directors of this organisation because we just got betrayed! Not to mention that using the pandemic coronavirus to justify why everyone needs to pay who live in a developed country is not only cheap but a clear discrimination.
Let this video be not only educational but also the echo of the dirtbag backpacker soul who is clinging on not needing the penny to be on the road....
