With about 1,639 Singaporean Couchsurfers scattered around the island, it looks the idea of spending the night in a stranger's house for free may be appealing and welcoming.
Couchsurfing.com, a website which helps travellers look for places to stay in cities around the world at no cost.
The online travel community requires members to fill out a profile to introduce themselves. Members can then choose the option of opening up their homes, or their "couch" , to other Couchsurfers around the world.
But it is not just the cost savings that the members are interested to join. The opportunity to see countries through a local's perspective and make friends all over the world is another factor that got the members hooked.
What do you think of this idea ? Will you be interested ?
