Did you know that, in addition to home exchange among employees, our platform also offers the possibility of organizing couch surfs?
If you are not familiar with the concept, couchsurfing is the possibility of getting free accommodation in someone’s place for a few days. Open-minded people willing to make new friends can register their home to offer an available room, o sometimes a sofa, to freely host a backpacker for a couple of days. Some hosts are often former couch surf travellers themselves, which look for these alternatives during their trips to travel at a much lower cost while making new friends and getting to visit the city with a local.
Aside from the benefit of finding free accommodation, couchsurfing can boost your trip’s experience in other ways:
– You can get to know the city better than a usual tourist. A good host will provide a deeper understanding of the city you are visiting.
– Your host knows the local hotspots and can offer money-saving tips for insider sights and activities. You can find the best eats in town away from the tourists traps, for examples.
– You may have access to a kitchen and save more money, as cooking meals at home are much cheaper than eating out everyday.
– Couchsurfing is not just for solo travellers. Couples and families with children can also find hosts who share the same interests.
