　　Although some people may have concerns about meeting complete strangers and giving them full access to your house，Beijing group member Fred Sharp from California says that the Couch Surfing community is one that generally attracts trustworthy people．
"I have never had a problem with guests．I'd say that this Couch Surfing community worldwide is a fairly trustworthy community like I say，always be cautious，make sure that you read everyone's profile that you're considering hosting，and if it doesn't feel right just say'no'，it's OK．"
　　Originally launched in the US as a non-profit organization in 2004，Couch Surfing is growing fast across the world．China is no exception with around 30，000 members and hundreds more signing up each week．One of them is Beijing resident Hai Yan who joined in November 2009．She says the first time she hosted a guest was a very positive experience．"My first guest was from Italy．He was very kind and helpful．He bought me a present from Italy，a handbag．It's a famous brand!"
