Couch Surfing?

So I was looking at inexpensive travel options online and I came across this website that was advertised as a traveling community called CouchSurfing. I read a bit more into it and found that it has become quite popular and has been written about by the New York Times, Forbes Magazine, National Geographic and other reliable sources. I find it so interesting because it offers its members a social networking service with the perk of hospitality exchange. Members could organize camping trips and traveling adventures and meet with one another in their respective areas at no cost to each other, if they have a couch, you have a bed. This social networking site has got me really excited seeing as though I love meeting new people and love traveling. What do you think?

  1. This is really cool. I like meeting new people too, although traveling is something I don't do much anymore. Great idea. Thanks!
