replying to @IBBtravel @IBBtravel A8: I have never tried couchsurfing! I'm not sure that I will. I like meeting people but I want to know them first before I take their couch ;) #InspireToWander

replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO A8. Yes! So many crazy fun stories from couchsurfing. Met some of my best friends from it. Had some great experiences but just be vigilant and be smart. #InspireToWander @inspiretowander

replying to @theanchoredblog @theanchoredblog @JustinLaurenXO @HiltonHotels @Expedia A7 #inspiretowander On the contrary, I'm not loyal but Brands can be useful as it gives you an idea of the standard you can expect. So, a brand I have used is SwissBel Hotel who are very common in Asia. The reason I like them is because they are good value for money.

A8 Tried couchsurfing once. Once. Woke up in the middle of the night with the host standing over me watching me. He asked if I was comfy and needed anything. I packed up and left. #inspiretowander

A4: Ouuu I've got lots! The biggest one is to plan ahead as much as you can though, that way you can have more choices & therefore cheaper places! https://t.co/h8PIdOxnnV #InspireToWander

@ParksandPoints @aok_NW @IHG Oh, right… I forgot to put on my corporate marketing hat, rose colored glasses, and sold my soul before I said that!

replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO A8: I worry too much. I am sure it’s a lovely experience (people are kind, right?!?) but I just can’t bring myself to try this. I don’t think I’d be able to fall asleep. #InspireToWander

replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO @inspiretowander A6: In theory it sounds cool, but then I hate being cold. I have reynaud syndrome so I think this sounds like something nightmares are made of. #inspiretowander

replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO I've been tempted to try it but also scared. I don't want to be one of those horror stories on the news! #InspireToWander

#InspireToWander A8) Not yet, but mainly because I don’t think anyone would actually want to stay at our house

replying to @RoadTripsCoffee @RoadTripsCoffee See. This is why I don't do couchsurfing. #InspireToWander

@JustinLaurenXO @obligatraveler They don’t even have a total cash value of 0.001 cents Canadian? 😕

replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO @IBBtravel I thought home stay means in a personal home with the actual owner/family where you might have to pitch in. Yeah. Not on a restful/fun vacay but good for free accommodation in exchange for work. Some young uns do this abroad travelling cheap. #inspiretowander

replying to @Guy_Theriault @Guy_Theriault @inspiretowander That is amazing! I'm guessing you didn't sleep in there though? Haha! #InspireToWander

replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO A8: @Couchsurfing is one of my go-to's when it comes to looking for accommodations in new places. I loved the idea, tried it once, and used it all throughout Europe! It's helped make up some memorable travel moments with some great folks! #InspireToWander

replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO I mean I've heard lots and lots and lots of great stories about couchsurfing. But the great stories...they just don't happen with me. #InspireToWander

replying to @StuartMHurlbut @StuartMHurlbut @JustinLaurenXO @HiltonHotels @Expedia Ohhh I’ll have to check them out! I am with you - I like to mix it up every now and then especially for a really fun trip. But sometimes it’s nice to know exactly what you are going to get. #InspiretoWander

@IBBtravel Yup! @JustinLaurenXO might say this is “tall people problems”. But Lauren, can you fetch me the mug on the 3rd shelf in your kitchen? 🤣🤣🤣

A5: That would hands down be the art hotel known as Propeller Island in Berlin. Each room is its own immersive experience - SO COOL. Creepy at times, too! https://t.co/Bxfs4Ntr1d #InspireToWander

replying to @Abfabtravels @Abfabtravels I don't HAVE to have my own space. Literally a place to sleep and I'm good to go. But the more open the space, the more reliant I am on good neighbors. #InspireToWander

replying to @IBBtravel @IBBtravel @inspiretowander @Airbnb I didn’t even file a complaint with them, but I wrote a scathing review. On top of all of that he just showed up one morning and opened the door! Didn’t even knock. I was new to it and didn’t know what I could do. #inspiretowander

replying to @SterlingTravelr @SterlingTravelr @obligatraveler I don't know how I'd pay you that amount. We don't even have pennies anymore nevermind a portion of a penny! #InspireToWander

replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO A8: Unsure about this too. Great if you literally have a backpack & can live light. Plus, with a complete stranger? I dunno. I might need some reviews...#inspiretowander

replying to @theanchoredblog @theanchoredblog @JustinLaurenXO Awe! Really reading through profiles, chatting with people, and reading other people's experiences helped to calm my nerves about Couchsurfing. Travellers tend to be so welcoming! #InspireToWander

replying to @NYCapricorn @JustinLaurenXO Now, I might try couchsurfing to meet folks abroad but not to sleep. I'm thinking of it. #inspiretowander

A9) Honestly, for all the trouble, a redeye flight is a good way to save money on a hotel room. We've been able to get a full day of exploring and then head to the airport to fly home, sometimes taking the subway into work Monday from the airport. #InspireToWander

A6: YES! It's one of the longest items that's been on my bucket list (behind the northern lights - can you tell I like winter?) & I loved every minute of it! @TourismQuebec's @Hoteldeglace is so cool! Pun intended! @quebecregion https://t.co/B53isS4bl7 #InspireToWander
