Couch Surfing
Bums on Seats: If you're a long-haired, bearded, backpacking hippy sick of slumming it in greasy cockroach-infested hostels run by greasy flea infested hostel owners then we've found the site for you.
Couchsurfers is a community of people dedicated to “raising collective consciousness and facilitating cultural understanding” by crashing on couches across the globe.
That’s right, now you can bum around from Galway to Guadalupe to Guadalajara cadging free accommodation from fellow couchsurfing members.
So it’s sayonara to the seedier side of world travel and aloha to the warm domestic comfort of someone else’s sofa. And, provided you wash a few dishes and occasionally feed your hosts cat you can do it for nada. Thanks to this site you can be a happier hippier version of Phileas Fogg travelling around the world in eighty couches.
