Well, I used the app Couchsurfing to find places to stay. I remember Couchsurfing. Now you can only submit like five Couchsurfing requests a day unless you're a premium member, which means you also host people. Wait, Couchsurfing's still around? Yeah, yeah, totally. Oh, nice. But it's evolved, obviously, into a different thing. Airbnb is a kind of competitor to that, right?

Couchsurfing is free, though. Right. So couch surfing, they call it like the CS community. So basically there'd be these like couch surfing super hosts in different cities. Like there was one in Santa Fe, this firefighter dude who had like 15 other couch surfers there chilling.

So I would do it everywhere. A lot of them were Catholics, you know, so it was their way of giving back. A lot of them were nudists. And so I didn't realize that there's a small little section at the bottom of someone's couch surfing profile that says clothing optional.

And that means if you go there, I thought it meant like it's cool if you walk to the bathroom in your underwear. No, if you go there, everyone's going to be butt naked. So I made that mistake a few times. Not that I'm anti-nudist, but I didn't want to, you know, I wasn't ready to take that leap of faith. And yeah, it was just great. Couch surfing hosts were amazing. That was just great.

Yeah. The one thing that gets exhausting about hitchhiking is constantly thanking people. You know, being in like sort of constant superficial gratitude everywhere all the time. Like, oh, thanks for letting me sleep on your couch. Thanks for the food. Yeah.

Part of the reason I wanted to live in an RV later in life is to avoid having to constantly live in this like, thanks so much type of frequency. Because it's exhausting to constantly, hey man, thanks.
