Couchers.org Reviews and details

Social recommendations and mentions

• 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: 10 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: 11 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: 11 months 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: 11 months 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: 11 months ago

• Stick your subscription to wherever the sun don't shine (RANT).

  If you can check out couchers.org. It is small but fastest growing of all last I checked. Bewelcome, Trustroot and Warmshowers are other free platfrom. Source: about 1 year ago

• Sorry, we had a problem and no products were found. Please try again later.

  I've signed up with couchers.org, but mostly just given up on couchsurfing altogether. Source: about 1 year ago

• Any good websites now that Couchsurfing.com aint' what it used to be?

  Bewelcome trustroots couchers welcometomygarden. Source: about 1 year ago

• Who is in Morocco or planning to visit ? I would like to meet some tourists and spend some time outside and explore, take pictures, eat street food.. etc.. and I do have when you can stay

  Perhaps best to create a full profile on beWelcome and https://couchers.org, or perhaps even Couchsurfing. Call it erring on the careful side, but I'd never accept an invitation like this. Wish you well though. Source: about 1 year ago

• Affordable short term accommodation

  Have a look at https://couchers.org . Its the new version of couchsurfing.com The old site started to charge fees for membership . The new does not. Have a look maybe someone has something. Or search for couch surfing FB groups in or near Regensburg. Source: about 1 year ago

• Anxious about traveling and running out of money, need advice on cost

  There was an alternative made by community members, couchers.org. Source: about 1 year ago

• Can anyone recommend a safe last minute camping spot for a solo woman camper?

  I would probably check out something like couchers.org or /r/couchsurfing to see what options there are for staying somewhere indoors. Source: over 1 year ago

• Couchers.org >>> The new Couchsurfing?

  You are right. It's still picking up the user base but I have had an opportunity to host a surfer last month from the platform and I am from India so it's even more remarkable as CS.com here is free and low incentives to switch to couchers.org. Source: over 1 year ago

• Couchers.org >>> The new Couchsurfing?

  Just joined the relatively new and FREE couchers.org which is clearly positioning itself as the answer to the dumpster fire that is now couchsurfing.org. Missing all the fantastic, eye opening, world-expanding experiences I had over my years of hosting and surfing. RIP the good old days pre-VC funding <3. Source: over 1 year ago

• Hi, I am just a guy from Czechia

  That's because they built the site with volunteers and then the founders cashed in and now the site is behind a paywall. Better join bewelcome.org, trustroots.org, or couchers.org. Source: over 1 year ago

• i am getting more and more request for couch surfers

  I joined BeWelcome as well. Nice platform. Have you also tried couchers.org? Source: over 1 year ago

• The OG "Couchsurfing" website vs the new "Couchers"?

  Wouldn't it be hard to manage all the profiles and request. Although I do support the idea of not putting all your eggs in one basket but couchers.org seems promising. I have received requests and they are from people who have kickass CS profile but moving to couchers for various issues. Source: over 1 year ago

• Ended up homeless in Wien; need any kind of help. Please read

  There is bewelcome.org, trustroots.org, couchers.org .All of them smaller but without paywall. Source: over 1 year ago

• I have decided to quit my job and travel the world for 6 months. I need help choosing the right equipment 🙏

  Other random advice- get connected to a hospitality org that you feel comfortable with. Trustroots.org, Servas.org couchers.org are 3 I think are great. Make connections while you travel - it's kind of the whole point. Get started on joining the orgs right now, so you know what your doing when you're on the move. Source: almost 2 years ago

• WarmShowers is suddenly demanding a subscription fee off me even though I’ve paid the $30 signup fee?

  Use trustroots.org or couchers.org. Source: almost 2 years ago
