Please note that there is a new group for "Divorced Travellers" to share their experiences with CS.
Naturally most CS users are students. Why do you find some single users over 35, obviously well educated with a good income? Are they stingy? Do they take CS for a marriage market? Not at all!
Especially for divorced persons, CS is a great opportunity to travel, because ...
... they are on a shoestring because they often have to pay a great part of their income as maintenance.
... they are looking for new friendships because old friends turned away when the old relationship broke.
... they left behind their old life and look for new experiences travelling around.
This group is open for all singled people who love to travel. You may discuss here for example:
- Where are good places to go for divorced people (with or without children)?
- Find a couch at a host who has made similar experiences.
- Find a travelling partner with the same background.
- How to break prejudices?

Hi Jerry,
I admire your work for Veterans and wish you great success in your adventure and speaking tour. I am enclosing my profile info so your High schoolers can get an idea of the diversity among the people of couch surfing. Not just geographical but in all facets of life.
If I could say one thing to them it would be that traveling is the best and cheapest form of higher education of all. When I was 18 I traveled around Europe for a year and a half by thumb. I felt like I had seen the world! When I returned home and traced my little trip on the globe I saw what a small part of the world Europe is! It has been my pleasure to discover more and more of the world throughout my life and there is still so much to see, so many people to meet, so many couches to surf. Yes, sadly, one can not travel by “thumb” so much anymore, Couch Surfing makes up for what you pay for transportation with a friendly place to stay all over the world! Take advantage of it and go GO!
