CouchSurfing
Instead  of mining your couch for change to pay for the vacation you can't afford, use said sofa to make your travel dreams a reality. At CouchSurfing, trekkers of the world offer up hearth, home, and hammocks to weary travelers in exchange for the same accommodation privileges. Stays can be as short as a cup of coffee or as long as an endless summer -- it's your call. If the ol' back is too creaky for hostels and the wallet's too thin for the Hilton, this may be the perfect solution. As they say, fish and guests start to stink after three days, so be careful what you sign up for. In fact, it might be wise to learn how to say "hasta la vista, baby" in a few languages before your guests come a knockin'. (in Cyberculture) |
