One Couch at a Time (2014)
Inspirational travel must-see
I loved this film! It made me feel as though anything were possible through human connection and sharing. I loved the adventure of following Alex through some fun and sometimes awkward situations as she traveled the globe.
In this documentary Alex films her experiences through several different continents and her interactions with people. She uses Couchsurfing - an online community of hosts and travelers to find places to stay. She documents her conversations and interactions with other couchsurfers and travelers alike. In this film you see her vulnerable at times, admitting she's wrong but also striving to find new ways to connect with people. You are able to understand the type of personal growth that couchsurfing and traveling both foster.
I highly recommend this film to anyone looking to learn more about the world around them especially to other backpackers, round the world travelers or those that are future travelers. It makes you want to pack your bags and go!
