OK, now this would not be "ME" but I thought it would be worthy of telling you guys about! I read about this in the Birmingham News Today - as they were talking abour folks who were coming to town for the City Stages Weekend Concerts - and staying with strangers - on their couch - for FREE!
The website is www.couchsurfing.com and here is part of the article from AL.com
"Tim Leong, 25, wouldn't dream of reserving a hotel room while visiting Birmingham from Wisconsin. He'd rather sleep on a stranger's couch.
Leong is one of more than 575,000 registered CouchSurfing members of www.CouchSurfing.com. There, people from all regions of the world can chat, view profiles and arrange trips based on who's couch is available for a night.
Wanting to volunteer for the weekend's music festival City Stages, Leong needed a place to stay in the Birmingham area. Via the CouchSurfing Web site, Leong met Jon Paolone of Hoover and asked if his couch was available for a two-night stay, to which Paolone replied "yes."
go to www.al.com and search couchsurfing for the entire story! This is too cool - for those who are single I guess?
