Allures of the Global, Gender and the Challenge to Confucian Hospitality among Vietnamese Couchsurfers from Ho Chi Minh City

Résumé

While 60 % of the world population is concentrated in Asia, less than 10 % of the members of the global couchsurfing hospitality community live in Asian countries.1 What are the factors that explain the apparently lesser “success” of this hospitality community among Asians? To respond to this question, I carried out an empirical case study in Vietnam. The focus was on the Vietnamese couchsurfers living in Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC), the first and largest city of the country, which accounts for 7 % of the Vietnamese population and 22 % of its urban population (General Statistics Office Of Vietnam, 2011).
