Im on couchsurfing. I used to host people when I was in Chile... its great!! I first used it when i went to Bulgaria. I lived with people that spoke english, ended meeting so many more people and going to places that the people from the capital have never heard about...

Go for it!

I've never used couchsurfing.com - - a variation of this idea however is home exchange, where you "trade" houses with someone from another country. You borrow their house, they borrow your house. Once in a while they're still in the house - - and often you visit their house but they never end up at your home (because they're not visiting your city, etc.). I've used homeexchange.com - - to stay in Barcelona and in Natal (Brasil). The crowd at homeexchange.com is a bit older than the couchsurfers. Homeexchange.com doesn't have many places to trade in Colombia - - you could try intervac-online.com, which I've never used but apparently has more places to trade in Colombia. Good luck.

I have heard many good things about couchsurfing, from students willing to put up with a little bit of incovenience. Go for it.

Aunque no me creas/ si me lo propongo/ lograre olvidarte/ porque a fin de cuentas/ no soy tan cobarde./ Y termino todo una de estas tardes/ no sera dificil buscar algún sitio donde refugiarme/ donde nunca mas vuelvas a encontrarme. (Polo Montañez)
