warmshowers Reviews and details

Social recommendations and mentions

• 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

• Taking a semester off to travel the world solo... Advice? (M19)

  Check out r/bicycletouring and warmshowers.org. A bike, a tent and sleeping bag. Super cheap. Nothing fancy, plenty of freedom and joy and a community of people who will help you out. Just an idea, works for me. Source: about 1 year ago

• What’s something about you that puts you on the extreme right side of the bell curve?

  I mostly used a website called warmshowers.org and another called couchsurfing.com which will allow you to stay in homes for free. Some people even feed you, fix your bike, and give you access to laundry. I only stayed in 1 hotel and it was only because there was a HUGE storm and it was far too windy to pitch a tent. I bartered down to $15 a night (which I had no idea I could do up until that point). The rest of... Source: over 1 year ago

• Alternative to Warmshowers - keen to host

  Hi Redditors. I am interested in being a host for tourists. I heard about warmshowers.org but they charge hosts (wtf?). What are some alternative sites/communities? Doesn't have to be bicycle tourism specific. Source: over 1 year ago

• Recommendations for bicycle touring weekend trips from Montreal?

  Really want to save on costs? Join warmshowers.org: it's the couchsurfing of cyclists. It's been created by a fellow quebecers (who died a few years ago unfortunately) and the baseline is to offer for free a warm shower and a place to pitch the tent but many offer a couch to crash on.

  I don't know that area very well unfortunately, but maybe you could check out if there are hosts listed on http://warmshowers.org (especially if you already have an account). It used to be free and easy to join but they've revamped their membership process, so I don't know what it takes now to become a member. But may be worth a look. Source: over 2 years ago

• Replacement for Couchsurfing?

  There are quite a lot of alternatives such as bewelcome.org, trustroots.org, couchers.org, and warmshowers.org. I think that's the current problem though (pandemic aside): There's too many sites with too few users on each. Source: about 3 years ago
