Alternatives to Hotels - powered by Web 2.0

March 4, 2008

If crashing on a stranger’s couch for free in your vacation is beyond your imagination (www.couchsurfing.com), try the Austrian alternative www.prooms.com. This new Web 2.0 - or may I say Travel 2.0 - platform enables would-be hosts to offer their spare beds or even entire apartment. The prices are pretty reasonable. Unfortunately, so far limited to the Austrian and Swiss host cities of the Euro 2008 . As of now, I can only detect a German language version. Update: The English version is due by the end of February. Hm, I do have a spare room. Will talk this over with my husband.
