The free website commonly used during traveling, couchsurfing.com, now has competition from a new website called crashpadder.com. This new service offers a room instead of a couch, for a small financial contribution from travelers.
Those who were disgusted by the idea of settling for a sofa or wished to find a place for two people, can now fall back on crashpadder.com. If they are willing to pay a little more money in exchange for greater comfort and more privacy, they offer guests a bed in a room.
Although couchsurfing.com is available in over 250 countries, crashpadder.com has already found its way into 40 countries and its growth is well underway. It offers a good alternative from the Bed & Breakfast and simple couch.
