haha, nah its an international network of people who lend travelers a place to crash and all. The site pretty much promotes gaining international, cultural experience and networking with other people....something along those lines.

If I wasn't married with a couple kids here it sounds great.





Sounds like a cool site. Might be good for local hookups!!! Or as stated above, raping.

Seems pretty cool, so you basically go where ever you want and meet up with a host and stay with them during your visit? I glanced at the site didn't read much.

I have done this.  Instead of paying a hotel, I met someone, gave them  a gift and took them to dinner instead of paying for hotel room.





Neat idea so I tried it out and it worked out well.  If you want to travel I recommend it.  Here's what my host said about me:




Gracious Young Warrior. raven has a beautiful mind. Very low maintenance
and independent guest. raven is like a walking encyclopedia-so much
ideas, concepts and very intuitive. I highly vouch for this guy not
only because he can easily entertain you with his thoughts but he is a
very good cook. Thanks for the aboriginal knife gift raven. Looking
forward for your next visit and hang out more raven my friend!

Seems like a bad idea to me. Who would want to go stay at someone's house that they don't know? How could it go wrong?

it appears there is a review system for hosts and "crashers". So in a way, it makes it a little safer.
