Christoph Pehofer took a nine-month journey through North America and Asia. Staying in hostels was a rare alternative. What he did instead was sleeping in complete strangers` living rooms - Couchsurfing is the concept behind this. The world seems to separate people more than connecting them. A private couch shows a place of approach and strangers becoming friends. Therefore, the main focus of the film is on the people which participate in Couchsurfing and their great diversity. His hosts couldn`t have been more different from one another: from a 21-year-old student in a student dorm, to a family in which three generations take part in Couchsurfing, to a nudist in Manhattan and a transgender in Bangkok.
