By now you have probably heard about Couchsurfing - not the old term used to describe crashing on a friend's couch, but the international network of travellers looking for couches on which to crash. I had. I'd heard about it and thought, "Who in their right mind would sleep at the home of a complete stranger?" Well, I've decided to answer that question... by doing it myself.

Couchsurfing Sans PJs
As far as couchsurfing stories go, this trip has been a bust. However, I've discovered some great B&Bs, and had a fantastic time!
Speaking of bust....
I got a message today from a couchsurfing "Ambassador" (a special title awarded to people with significant CS experience who wish to take on extra responsibilities in welcoming couchsurfers to the community) who is visiting Vancouver from France. This message was an invitation to come hang-out.... literally.... on Wreck Beach with other CSers in Vancouver. The invite mentions the clothing optional nature of the venue....
Sleeping with strangers just got a whole lot more personal!
I think I'll have to check this event out when I get home.
