About
Couchsurfing is a hospitality exchange and social travel community built on a simple but radical idea: people everywhere are willing to open their homes to friends they haven't met yet. The platform connects travelers with locals for free stays, and it is equally a platform for Events, Communities, and Hangouts. Founded in 2004, it has grown into a global community spanning millions of members across nearly every country on Earth. Hosts do not accept payment; membership is paid for full access, but the stays themselves are always free.
