Image via WikipediaDo you dream of travel but think the cost is beyond you means? Hotel rooms can sometimes be hard to book and high priced. Several nights away from home can be a real strain on a vacation budget. Why not couchsurf instead and save your vacation dollars for fun stuff!Couchsurfing is a social network and website that has participants in over 250 countries. Travelers can find a willing host who will cheerfully offer you a place to bunk in their home, or folks willing to take you around to see the sights and enjoy the local culture.
You can also sign up to sponsor a traveler to return the favor!
