Niche Couch Surfing Site Caters to Euro ’08 Goers

Travel accommodation doesn’t get cheaper than couch surfing, or the practice of sleeping on a couch in a stranger’s home. Not only is it free, but it’s also a great way to connect with a city and its people.

The growing popularity of couch surfing has prompted the growth of niche websites like Sleep In, which offers fans of Euro ’08 (for the uninitiated, a European soccer tournament that takes place once every four years, and is second in fan frenzy only to the World Cup), and home owners in Switzerland and Austria where the games will be held a chance to connect.

If you’re looking for a comfy sofa to rest your head during the games, all you have to do is register for free at the site, and outline your needs as a couch guest. Hosts can then pick out the ones they think they’d be most comfortable welcoming into their homes.
