This book is a guide to 'couch surfing'. couch surfing is an online sofa hopping website. If you ever find yourself without a sofa to sleep on you just sign up to this sight and someone (a stranger) will let you sleep on there couch. This gives you amazing experiences especially if you're in another country, you get to see a place through their eyes and not just be a tourist. Having been a couch surfer I have created this book, telling stories of people we met and sharing my advice because you can meet some amazing people but you can also suffer some couch wipeouts.
