What is Couchers.org?
The Couchers.org platform offers a modern, community-driven alternative to traditional couch surfing experiences. As a non-profit, volunteer-built service, it aims to reclaim the spirit of free-sharing travel and cross-cultural connection.

By incorporating the best features from other hospitality exchange services while addressing core issues like outdated functionality and disconnection from user communities, Couchers.org provides a refreshing approach to facilitating meaningful travel experiences accessible to all
