by Catie Cash on May 21, 2010

Shhwweeet. Look what I’ve found. Your dreams of roaming the world for free have just come true. Forget stinky backpackers accommodation – ride the couch wave and save heaps. Check this out…

Couchsurfing’s vision statement – “A world where everyone can explore and create meaningful connections with the people and places they encounter.”

A little bit about couchsurfing from the couchsurfing website…

“Members share hospitality with one another. These exchanges are a uniquely rich form of cultural interaction. Hosts have the opportunity to meet people from all over the world without leaving home. ‘Surfers,’ or travelers, are able to participate in the local life of the places they visit. We also give more people the chance to become travelers, because ’surfing’ lowers the financial cost of exploration. The CouchSurfing community continues to expand its horizons. Members are always finding more ways to connect and learn about each other. Every day, people across the world share coffee, camping trips, meetings, language exchanges, discussions and all sorts of other experiences.
