      I totally love this project!!! I've heard so many CSers talk about doing a video similar to this one, but glad to see someone actually DO IT! How AWESOME!!

      Def luv CSing -- been all over South, Central, and North America, and Europe b/c of this great site. I have some of the best memories and got some AMAZING friends out of my journeys thanks to CS.

      My support may not be much, but I believe in you, CS, and the project... best of luck! Maybe I'll see you around this summer in San Fran when I'm out there working for Google =P

      Hey Alex,

      Just wanted to say I'm in love with your project. I'm a little disappointed you beat me to it - was planning on doing something similar next year. I'm an avid couchsurfer, having backpacked from South Africa to Ireland, CS all the way. I'm very excited for you - hope to see something good come from it.

      dear alexandra,

      i was moved to share my support for your project. I'm new to kicksrtarter cause my peeps are making a film on shamanism. kickstarter is awesome!

      Although I don't know you or your peeps, i am moved by the notion of couchsurfing and the community building that it offers....You have a rich theme to play with and wish you great success.

      always aloha,
      Scotto
