About me
Hey there! It’s Ivanozka from Mexico City 🇲🇽 I’m a performer and filmmaker, currently working on an independent documentary and artistic research project. This journey will take me through 16 countries on a budget, guided by purpose, intuition and presence. My work explores various topics of memory, collective consciousness, myth, and the relationship between landscapes (especially the sea) and human experience. Exploring the physical, spiritual and rather personal frontiers we encounter in life. I’m utterly interested in culture, history, tradition, art, and music. I’m a musician and play in a couple of bands in my home country, I’m passionate about modular synthesis and sound exploration, and in that matter I’d like to think of myself as a collector in a way. I’m especially drawn to folk music, the Romani culture, sea legends, old cemeteries, and the stories that live beneath the surface of them. I’ll be waking up early and usually have full days of filming, recording, and writing, so I value calm environments, clear communication, and mutual respect. I enjoy meaningful conversations but I’m also very comfortable with silence and shared quiet. I love cooking and sharing a meal, and I’m excited to learn about local food. I live with my husband Tony, and my roommate Annie whom I’ll be traveling with. We share our life with our cats, Noche, Neftis, and Igor. I really appreciate the trust and care of you letting me stay with you, back in Mexico we actively host when we can. We love welcoming people from different communities and sharing a safe space. I value kindness, boundaries, and honest connection, and I take this opportunity as a way to remember that we’re all, reflections of a shared collective consciousness. Thank you for reading and for opening your home if we share this core values.

About me
I’m a high school language teacher, and although I’m older, I have a youthful attitude. I like to meet new people, try new food, and learn something new as I explore new places. I prefer spending longer times in 1 place rather than a day or two in many places. Plain and simple. I love to host visitors and take them around, too.

About me
Seeking quality guests as too many guests on Couchsurfing are outright rude or irresponsible -- or both. Also, too many nudists and/or sexual predators on that site. Too few female hosts.

About me
Hello! I am Josie Shadbolt (23) and I’m from Nebraska USA! I love travel and want to go everywhere, my main focus right now is Asia and I absolutely love Japan! I’m currently learning Japanese and would love someone to help me learn. My family owns and runs a cow/calf operation here in the Sandhills of Nebraska. We are proud horsemen/women and have amazing landscape views. I would recommend seeing small town rural USA, it’s often overlooked and I think that’s such a shame! Anyone who would be interested in seeing it for yourself, don’t hesitate to reach out. :)

Can host for:

About me
Hey! I’m the kind of person who once flew a small plane, traveled solo to Argentina at 12, and seriously considered becoming a mermaid. I speak English and Spanish, enjoy spontaneous adventures, and somehow always end up organizing things wherever I go. I’m calm and observant, but love being surrounded by energy—think street festivals, open-air markets, or lively local spots. I’m always curious and open to new experiences.
