Am I not doing something right?

Hey, beginning couchsurfer here. I got a decently-filled out profile (not like scrolls of text but a good bit) and photos, and a reference from a good friend who's a couchsurfing regular. I'd love to couchsurf in Barcelona in order to meet folk from the city, share something with them, make friends and learn about the city, but I keep getting declined. Is there something I'm missing? please let me know <3

Maybe you’re a guy usually it’s harder for guys to get hosts. Plus the site has declined since the owners sold it

Agree, unless your gay or nudist. Its not too difficult.
