I've heard of couch surfing - especially when I was a college student. It was popular for us then because there were times (during the summer)when we don't have a place to stay. So we would asked friends if it's ok to stay on their couch for a week or so. It's not something new - it's just interesting how people are so trusting that they would put their couch up for travellers. I have an extra room in my house - it's just being used for storage and computer room. I don't know if I trust other people enough to let them stay in it though - even it's just for a weekend.

I have heard of couch surfing and I did have a look at their website. I sounded like an excellent idea for the budget traveler. I imagine that there are some lovely people in wondered destinations that can be visited. In some countries there are many different choices like the USA and Canada. In other countries there are only one or two choices and in some countries nobody does couch surfing. I have a toddler son that is disabled and a baby daughter. I wish couch surfing had been around when I was younger. I imagine that my mom would have been worried about me staying safe. I think I would have felt fine about doing couch surfing.

yeah, I've used it. Never hosted anyone, but I did travel and needed a ride to and from the airport, so I made a friend on couchsurfing and he not only gave me a ride, but showed me around the city one day/night. I wouldn't be worried because couchsurfing is a lot like ebay, with the ratings and all. Other users who have experience with a certain member, will leave feedback, making it easier for other members to trust them.
