• Long-time Couchsurfing user suspended for mentioning "couchers.org" in a private message & remains suspended for not agreeing to ridiculous communication policy

  Last month, after mentioning the phrase "couchers.org" (a free alternative to Couchsurfing) in a private message to another user (who said on her profile that she prefers to be contacted there), I was instantly suspended. Source: 11 months ago

• Why are there no negative references?

  Yep, it's an issue with couchsurfing, nobody wants to leave a negative reference. This was actively being discussed in couchers.org. I myself felt pretty uncomfortable leaving a neutral reference once. Source: 12 months ago

• Warmshowers as a host??

  You could also use couchers.org. It's more a follow-up to the broken couchsurfing.com, so a much wider scope. Currently it's free and says it will stay that way, they want to go with volunteer effort. Source: about 1 year ago

• Airbnb vs Camping

  Couchsurfing: my preferred way of touring: you get to meet great and likeminded people, you don't have to lug around camping gear (although it's good to bring an indoor-sleeping bag). The site with name couchsurfing.com is broken. But the oldschool warmshowers.org and the new couchers.org are great! You have to treat this type of hospitality as a gift and not consider it a free service. If you can, hosting others... Source: about 1 year ago

• Backpacking through the states by train for the first time. Any tips?

  Also, I would suggest joining a hospitality org. The best, original one is Servas - www.servas.org - but there's couchers.org, trustroots.org and others. it could help you immensely. Source: about 1 year ago

• Foreigner looking for furnished appartment

  Try sonder.com - my friend used them before in chicago and really liked the space and service. Not sure what the monthly cost break out is, but a good temporary solution. I'd recommend doing that short term and them finding a more permanent location afterward. Source: over 2 years ago

• Need advice as a new full-time digital nomad

  AirBNB and sonder.com have great rates for 7+ and 30+ day stays, and when I'm in transit and not sure which town I will be in the Hotel Tonight app works well. I personally really like Sonder because they are corporate run and have fast internet and usually a good workspace, but they are only in a few cities. Source: about 3 years ago

• sonder.com hotel scam - what can we do?

  I used sonder.com in Rome and it was completely fine - honestly better than expectations. Source: about 3 years ago
