&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Intimate Tourism&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, also known as &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Emotional Tourism&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, is a concept created by Paula Bialski, a student sociologist, while studying [[CouchSurfing]], a hospitality exchange network. Intimate tourism is a term which is used to define the process of hospitality exchange networks as the individual experiences a kind of relationship without physical or geographical borders – a post-friendship where the personal needs of the individual such as “personal growth,” direct dialog, and human closeness, is met instantly, without taking into account any time-space continuum traditionally ingrained in the institution of friendship. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Within Intimate Tourism, there are key social processes which assist this mechanism to fully function as it does –  factors which allow people to become close, and verbally intimate after a very brief time. &lt;br /&gt;
# The dichotomy between public and private space within our urban environment can influence our intimacy level - specifically, the fact that individuals are meeting in the utmost of intimate spaces - the private home.  &lt;br /&gt;
# The specific goal and mindset of the CouchSurfing individual is crucial as they make use of this previously-mentioned space in order to fulfill their agenda of ‘personal growth.’&lt;br /&gt;
# Finally, the Internet is the crucial key in merging these two worlds and quenching the individual’s need for closeness by providing access to the locality of intimacy – the private home or ‘couch.’  &lt;br /&gt;
