到了Kos,確實很有歐洲feel。一出關,就有免費WiFi了,碼頭附近有很多遊客、招徠客人的工作人員給免費地圖或手冊。我找到了blue star ferries的辦公室,想說先買去Santorini的票。工作人員說,去Santorini的船,只有在逢星期一、三、五開,所以,也就是說,我必須在Kos這裡住至少兩晚。買了票,就去找village bus stops。找到了,一眼望去共有四個巴士站,我卻不曉得該在哪裡等去Mastihari的巴士,所以去附近的一間小食店問人。
“巴士一點才從這裡開。” 當時大約是1215之前,我就想說把大包放著,先到處走走。小食店很好人,免費讓我把大包放在一個不擋著人的地方,不然luggage storage店可能會收你6歐元寄放行李(blue star ferries的工作人員說的)。想要去坐那個免費饒city的火車的,但一去到,火車剛剛開走,也坐滿了人。下一班必須等到1300,來不及了。
老實說,Pro又是一個十分特別的沙發主人。不懂是不是因為這樣,他說雖然他當過很多次主人,但每次要找沙發時,大多時候都得不到人家的回應和接受。他在他的profile那裡有說得很清楚,他是一個很隨心所欲、go with the flow的人,想到什麽就會做什麽那種。我覺得這種人單刀直入,把東西都先說清楚,算是不錯,總比很多表面一個樣、內心又想另一種東西的人好。他接受前也有問我多一次:你有沒有詳閱他的profile?是否可以接受他的風格?
後來他問我拍照的技術如何,我說還OK。他說有個朋友給了他一個挑戰,但平時一個人很難做到,就問我是否介意替他當攝影,用他的Nikon D40拍。基本上,我找不到拒絕的理由,所以就幫忙了。忙完了,我還跟他說,我還是第一次拍這種照片,真的是突破。拍完了,他就說肚子餓,所以打電話去預定了食物,然後出去拿。那時候,我們也接到了兩個Icelandic女生的電話,說她們到了碼頭。吃飽了,我們也必須出去接她們,然後一起去thermal hot spring。
去thermal hot spring的路途很美,沒自己的交通的話,或許很難去到,或者必須徒步蠻遠下去的。我很喜歡那裡的山石!我們在那裡總共待了大約3小時之久,1930-2230,從白天到夕陽西下到黑夜籠罩,看著天上的繁星,感覺很好,只是黑暗讓我還是有點不安全感(上岸時),幸好有手機的電筒照明。在hot spring時,他也有幫我們做推拿(很多人會拿這個來當“抽水”的藉口,但他真的沒有亂亂來)。兩個女的似乎都有很舒服的感覺,但我一如往常,都會覺得沒什麽分別。他和過往的按摩師一樣,都跟我說我很stressful。
“You should let things go. Let go.”他說。
“I’m trying hard to do that.”我回答。
“That’s exactly what you should avoid doing. Anyway, coming here is a good step.”他又說。
Waseem was very helpful and told me all the good things to do so I can not say that he is not good. But I didn't really like his behavior after. We met after his work for a drink on the beach at night, We talk about many things first and then he started to speak about sex ALL THE TIME !!!! He was not dangerous but he was asking a lots of questions about sex.
Example : "When did you have sex for the first time ? How many boyfriend did you have ? Do you shave yourself ? Where exactly ? Would you show your body to a stranger ? ...." I was not scared but a little bit angry.
At the end, when we arrived to his apartment, he told me that I could sleep on the carpet or in his bed (single bed) WWWHAAAAT !!!! I was very angry because he never told me that before ! Finally I slept alone in his bed and he slept with his cousin.
In fact, I will suggest you to find another couchsurfer even if I think Waseem is not dangerous.

I am happy that you asked me my feeling about Waseem because I don't want that another girl has the same experience then me ! He wasn't bad with me but maybe he can be bad with other girls... I don't know !
I am very choc to see that one of your friend left his house to go to a hotel ! That means that he does that all the time and he can be disturbing ! it not good at all ! She should say it on his profile ! It is very important for other couchsurfer like you and me to know that.
Anyway, I am reassure to know that you don't go to his place. Maybe try to find a girl.

What you said about yur friend experience is horrible!!! She really need to say it on couchsurfing! I am thinking that maybe I am lucky that anything happened to me!
Blue Star Ferry應該是我人生中至今坐過最大的船吧。進到去,還有escalator,嚇到一下,哈哈。首個小時,我們在頂樓,沒冷氣又有人抽煙。後來我們就移去樓下,有沙發有空調的。要看好環境,那下次再搭的時候就會知道應該可以去那裡找可以躺下來睡覺的地方。我們玩了一下撲克牌(我終於掌握到技巧,可以贏了),就覺得很想睡了,所以就去找了個可以躺下來的地方睡。
Santorini,一個聽了好多人說很美、很喜歡的地方,也去了什麽“類似Santorini”的地方(菲律賓長灘島的Aeriel’sPoint),現在終於來到了,但卻有一些寂寞的感覺。就好像雖然在Kos也去了hot spring,但最懷念的還是在Pulau Weh,去了hot spring 潛點潛水,然後去用火山泥那裡“玩泥”的記憶。
其實2012年在Samosir Island和Mawar一起發生車禍后,去年2013年我在斯裡蘭卡南部也是有和SK一起租電單車。這一次再來,我依然心有餘悸,所以一開始就查看輪胎的輪紋是否還OK,然後也一直提醒自己要小心,時不時還提醒自己檢查一下是不是 ikut kanan,怕沒其他人或車的時候,我又回到一向來的習慣。雖然一直都很順利,但我對自己的提醒依然不斷重複,因為在Samosir Island那次就是整天好好的,但最後一程快到住宿了才出事!!
去到Oia,如餐廳侍應之前所告訴我的,很多人,而且很多商店。真的,我沒有太喜歡這種狀況。由於天氣不好,我也沒對所謂的美麗夕陽有太大的期望。最後事實也證明,今天的夕陽就只是那麼普通。沒關係,沒有就沒有,勉強沒幸福。我還是選擇相信 everything happens for a good reason。
我想接下來還是一樣,大多時候都會依據我可以找到哪裡的沙發主人。在Santorini沒有沙發衝浪到,我又一點crave for it了。我要local experience!!在Kos的主人(Pro)雖然不是不好,但還是有給到我一些文化衝擊,所以接下來,還是會“主攻找女生”。平靜久了想來點刺激的,就再來找一些個性特別的,然後帶著戰戰兢兢的心情過去和他們會面,藉此看看這個多姿多彩的世界是由怎麼五花八門的人組成的。
不行了,我們都決定打道回府,不要再繼續了。我把他們帶到local bus station,查看了時間表(等5分鐘就有巴士了),我也就先行離開。那時候真的想要罵粗口。我一出去就那個樣子,是不是特地要跟我過不去??回到住宿,由於已經check-out了,就只能在lounge那裡待。我用了好久的時間才把打結的頭髮梳好,真的是不容易!想說沖個涼的,但要把東西搬進搬出又覺得麻煩,就叫自己忍忍吧。
