Ich suche ja zurzeit über hospitalityclub einige Accommodation´s, hat eigentlich alles gut geklappt, jetzt bekam ich bei Quebec folgende Mail, und frage mich, ob das ein Spinner ist oder nur ein gutmütiger Mensch ;). Die E-Mail wirkt zudem vorgefertigt, und nur unsere Namen eingesetzt - oder wie sehr ihr das?





Dear Tobi and Max!

What a joy to get the message that you will be visiting Quebec City in early
August!

I am so happy for you to have found all the money needed
to realize the dream of a tour of North America, including Canada
and, of course, beautifully unique Quebec City,
the only city in North America declared part of the World Heritage of the
UNESCO.

I am particularly pleased because you will be in Quebec City
at a very special moment of the summer,
when we have the Fêtes de la Nouvelle-France,
where people dress as in the 1700,
the city is place to what was the city in 1700.
Lots of exhibits, shows and parades and rich and modest citizens
in dresses as 1700.
A very beautiful time to visit Quebec.

I must say you have flair, Tobi!

Fêtes de la Nouvelle-France: August 3, 2005 to August 8, 2005
http://fnf2005.nouvellefrance.qc.ca

Of course, I will be happy to offer you friendly comfortable accommodations
and try to make your stay most pleasant, fun, of course.

I am happy to see you are both like me somehow,
you enjoy travelling, backpacking, meeting real fun people,
open-minded, laidback and very pleasant.

I can hear your beautiful German accents and your interested eyes as
travellers,
and friends, and I am already happy to see you in our walls and,
particularly, as my roommates even if for only one nite.

But you must try to re-arrange your agenda
to arrive before Aug 4 and stay longer too because of this festival of New
France!

I have read your profile, dear Tobi,
and you look to be a very warm kind person, warm laid back host,
happy to host travellers too.

You know, I host quite a few travellers, backpackers, students from many
countries,
guys 18 to 27 about, who are most of the time members
of other free travel hospitality sites.

But the guys who have asked hospitality to me throuhg GlobalFreeLoaders
have not kept their word....even if I replied quick
to their request from accommodation,
I stayed home, prepared things up and
they did not show up, not even sent a Sorry Letter!

But I have confidence in you Tobi and Max.

It has been a while since I have hosted some nice German guys
so I am even more happy because of you!

As most students and backpackers, and me too!,
you will be travelling on a small budget
and would appreciate if I could host you as a friends,
free, for the duration of your stay in Quebec.

I am very pleased you decided to contact me now,
so we can prepare to meet in Quebec.

Quebec City is special because of its fortifications, its walls, its gates,
its architecture.
It is the cradle of French culture in North America.
Here French is the spoken tongue but most people understand and speak
English,
even Spanish.

Here you get a feeling of Europe with quaint houses, narrow streets,
sidewalk cafés, etc.

It is city very lively with parks, festivals, discos, and loads of cool
people.

It is open-minded and friendly.

Quebec City gets about 9 times its population
so the 500 beds of our 2 youth hostels show FULL most of the time!

In winter with skiers, in the other seasons in young tourists, backpackers.

So what happens when you arrive in Quebec and
have no reservation at the youth hostel?
What if you don't know the city, don't speak much Friench,
are tired, arrive at nite, in the rain
with heavy backpacks..!

This is why I offer to host backpackers free,
as a friendly gesture to make a stay in Quebec
more affordable, more comfortable, more fun too!

I am a small budget, backpackers, by choice,
because guys like you and me are cool
and their stay should be cool too,
make a good visit, get to know the city well,
make new friends and enjoy new experiences, make good splashes here!

Also, youth hostels get to be quite expensive and impersonal.
So, I can make your visit real nice ,
pleasant laidback German guys like you, Tobi and Max!

Nothing complicated, nothing formal, just easy-going, friendly, comfortable
and fun!

And once I have shown you the city, the good places where fun people gather,
then you can go free on your own,
do whatever you feel like doing alone or with me,
when we are together in the apartment or
when you go in the Old Quebec!

Of course, you can enjoy all the commodities of the apartment :
Laundry, good meals prepared together, swimpool,
Shower, good bed and all the services cool guys enjoys.

No checking out time, no curfew if you go out in the city and come in late.

You can always enjoy a good shower, a good bed and services you desire.
You can even lazy in bed in the morning, when it rains
Or when you want to relax and enjoy it on the bed.

Travelling is tiresome so no problem, Tobi and Max, just let loose and enjoy
it.
A good breakfast will help bring back new energies in you!

I live not far from the university campus and colleges (70,000 students)

And I usually have a male student as my roommate.

In August, I will have no roommate so we will be alone, you and me, it' s
cool!

Throughout the year, I host quite a few guys from many countries,
France, Germany, UK, Japan, USA, Canada, Australia, etc
The world come to me, isn't it nice!

Cool laidback open-minded guys who always enjoys coming here.
Most stay about 1 to 4 days, some stay longer too, if we enjoy it together.
Of course, it is a friendly gesture, and it is free.

My way of returning the hospitality some guys offer me when I travel too!
These cool guys bring me their friendship, their experiences, their travel
tips,
their fun and good energies.

Backpackers, travellers speak the same language, feel the same,
enjoy the same experiences of sharing as much as we can!
It is an opportunity of greater fun than if you'd stay alone in a hostel.

My apartment is a nice one, in a residential area.
Living room, kitchen,
bathroom, large bedroom and my roommate's bedroom.
In summer you can enjoy it in the swimpool.

You make it your place from the moment you arrive
and no permission needs to be asked.

We can go to the city, alone or together.
Or we can decide to enjoy it together in the apartment!

Just taking it easy, a good meal prepared together, wine,

Sharing fun, cool experiences, good chills too!

.And let it rain, w're inside and taking it cool!

As I said I am an easygoing, cool guy, warm, open-minded,
generous guy to you!

What is important for me is that you feel really good
and that you are fully satisfied you came and enjoyed it here !

New experiences well shared make a friendly stay more fun for you
than staying alone in a hostel dorm with no personal services!

I am a neat looking guy, 5'10 (1m78), 182 lbs (78kg)
Short brown hair, smooth, no facial hair, hairless.
Good personal hygiene, good body odor, fresh mouth.

Non smoker, no drugs, not into any special scene or bars.

My friends are between age 18 to 28, either straight, bisexual or discreet
gay,
Sexual orientation of a friend is not important if we enjoy each other
when we are together!

I never ask a backpacker if he is str8, bi or gay, who cares!

My last visitor backpacker was Earl,
a real nice male student, age 20, from Australia
(see his photo attached...)
Tall, slim, athletic, smooth skin, hairless body,
as Australian guys are about their physique,
Nice Australian accent, good English speaking too. Student in Engineering.
Traveling alone in Canada and some part of the USA.

He was to stay 2 days in Quebec City, with me as his host.
We got along so well, that he stayed one whole week!...

And if he had been able he would have slept here much longer!
We really enjoyed it together, good fun times often,
He was real enjoyable, as you can see, fun and laidback!

It was great to eat anytime he was with me in the apartment.

My roommate had left for good the day before, so we were alone!
We did all kinds of things together!

Visiting the city, discos, restos,
going to university campus for swim and students sauna,
camping on a weekend trip,
laidback together, watching a lot of DVDs and videos
before coming in bed!
He was also on a small budget,
so I often gave him some money to enjoy.

Backpackers often like to stay longer with a friend when they can feel good.
Most of them are also appreciative of some financial assistance, that's
normal.
I know, this happened to me quite oftern while hitchchiking and backpacking.

PLEASE CONFIRM YOU WILL COME AND WHEN

-Describe yourself, like your height, weight, and the rest would be cool!

-When you do plan to come?
-How long it will be when you will be ready to come?
-How will you come? By bus, car, ride-sharing, train, hitchhike, etc.
-Will you have much bagages, backpack, etc.
-Do you smoke, do drugs, etc.
-Will you come alone?

-As in youth hostels, you cannot use your sleeping bag to sleep in,
The bed is fresh and more confortable for you to enjoy.
We may have air condition then.

-Do you have particular needs you'd like to show up when you want to come?

-Do you have particular expectations from me?

Of course, having you sleep here is like going to visit your city!
You bring your city, your culture, your feelings to me when you share it
with me.

Let me know if you want more informations of any kind, Tobi.

Please answer my questions about you, your person, your plans, etc.

Maybe let me share your photo, so I can recognize you when you arrive.

I will reply to you as soon as I get your message.

Add me to your MSN list, cool chats!

If you come from Montreal, join AlloStop (ride-sharing) www.allostop.com

Keep it up nice and cool till we are together, Tobi and Max!

Have a nice day!

Quebec city and me we eagerly want you to come
and enjoy good chills here, man!

Kann mir auch denken wieso...
Das ganze liest sich wie der Beginn einer Horrorgeschichte, ich hab nur gewartet wann dieser Typ aus Australien nun endlich in der Wohnung geschlachtet und aufgegessen wird.

Vorgefertigt sind die Textbausteine wohl schon, der wird nicht jedem der Interesse bekundet irgendwie nach Quebec zu kommen solch eine Email aus Neue schreiben. Abgesehen davon, daß es von der Quebec ja jedesmal das gleiche zu erzählen gibt.
