What is CouchWiki?

Couchwiki is a travel community guide for Hospitality networks like CouchSurfing, Hospitality Club, BeWelcome, BeLodged, Global Freeloaders, Servas etc.

A travel community guide is something like WikiTravel but more personal. It helps you experience travel with the senses of a local.

Why use Couchwiki?

Simple. Because Couchwiki is open to anyone and everyone. It is in keeping with the philosophy of inclusion and openness. We believe in decentralized control, in self-moderation, and that everyone who has something valuable to contribute may do so with ease.
