My favorite site is www.couchsurfing.com

This site was created in order to make world tourism more popular, convenient and cheap.

Couchsurfing is a global community of 7 million people in more than 100,000 cities all over the world. Each of them can invite another person from community to visit his homeplace, native city or be invited somewhere, for example to visit boarding country. It is really interesting.

History

Couchsurfing has began in 2004 as a small project by founders Casey Fenton, Daniel Hoffer, Sebastian Le Tuan and Leonardo Bassani da Silveira.

This group of students in Iceland had the idea, that people anywhere would want to share their homes with strangers (or, as they like to call them, friends you haven’t met yet ).

People can use this programme only if they are under 18 years old.

Most of the users are the students - young, energetic people.

At the free time couchsurfers exchange the information and photos, communicate with each other and compare notes after their last traveling.

With the help of this website you can:

• Travel around the world
• Meet new friends from many countries
• Learn more about the culture of different countries
• Practice in language
