Hospitality exchange tourism is a new type of niche tourism, which is highly dependent on the Internet. Through participating in global hospitality exchange networks, such as CouchSurfing, tourists can meet local people who are willing to offer free accommodation, and hosts can also
meet people around the world by hosting them. CouchSurfing works as a system of reciprocity, in which hospitality as well as cultures is exchanged between hosts and surfers. Through hospitality sharing and cross-cultural interactions, a global community with diverse cultures is envisaged in
CouchSurfing. Although CouchSurfing is global in its scope, it is locally practiced in different ways by different cultures. The meaning of CouchSurfing is negotiated by surfers and hosts who both participate in it, and the reciprocal system of CouchSurfing seems to be more complicated when
different cultures are involved. Based on Taiwanese experiences of CouchSurfing, this study introduces a non-western perspective on CouchSurfing and has a dialogue with prior research about CouchSurfing that has tended to focus on western experiences. Qualitative methods, including participatory
observation and qualitative interviews, are adopted in this study to explore how CouchSurfing is practiced in non-western society.

WHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN ON THIS TOPIC? The average secondhand smoke exposure rate was 68.1% in China in 2018. The World Health Organization suggests that legislation must be used to achieve a 100% smoke-free environment and protect nonsmokers from secondhand smoke. WHAT IS ADDED BY THIS REPORT? This study showed that the implementation of the Amendment Regulations on Smoking Control in Public Places of Shanghai had a significant effect on reducing the exposure rate of secondhand smoke. The rate in 2018 was 46.7%, which was significantly lower than that (58.5%) before implementation in 2016. WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS FOR PUBLIC HEALTH PRACTICE? Considering the high exposure and the harm of secondhand smoke in China, it is necessary to promote smoke-free legislation and enforce tobacco control measures.
