Abstract

Couchsurfing (CS) is now regarded as an alternative platform that reflects changes in tourist accommodation preferences. The CS platform, based on the sharing economy, offers an opportunity to give various tourist experiences to travelers, as well as accommodation. This study aims to provide information about the travel motivations, prejudices, risk perceptions and experiences of CS guests. It has original value for the relevant literature, as it delves deeply into CS guests using a phenomenological approach. The present results show that the desire to sightsee new places, meet new people and recognize different cultures has motivated the participants. The study found that although most of the participants did not have prejudices or risk perceptions, CS first timers did. It has also been observed that participants are highly satisfied with their CS experiences and intend to take part in CS activities again.
客人沙发客体验的现象学研究
“沙发客”(Couchsurfing,简称CS)现在被认为是反映游客住宿偏好变化的另一种平台。CS平台以共享经济为基础,为游客提供住宿和各种旅游体验的机会。本研究旨在提供有关CS客人的旅游动机、偏见、风险认知和体验的信息。它对相关文献具有原始价值,因为它使用现象学方法深入研究了CS客人。目前的结果表明,观光新地方,结识新朋友和认识不同文化的愿望是参与者的动力。研究发现,虽然大多数参与者没有偏见或风险观念,但CS的初学者却有。我们也观察到,参与者对他们的CS体验非常满意,并打算再次参加CS活动。
