Just how personal do you want to get?!?

I have a question for you... would you want to stay with other DK members when you are traveling?  Would you want to host DK members that are traveling?

 

On a different social network today (on the same platform as us) I saw a feature that allowed you to search for other members that would host your stay while in their city.  Call it couch surfing, spare bedroom squatting, whatever.  It sounded like it could be fun.

 

I would set up a new page where you could search for hosts in a given city or state.  You could then contact them and work out the details.  What do you think?  Would you want to do that?

 

To make it work you would just have to answer one additional question to your profile:  "Would you host other DK members as overnight guests in your home?"

 

Let me know what you think.  I could set it up in a few hours and it might be a hoot.  I know I would only be a little scared of what Laurie, Fudge, and Vern said about us after their visit to Walla Walla.  :-)

I think that may be a great idea. My aunt and uncle stayed in Australia for many months when their kids were little and swapped houses with another. It was a great time for them in their lives. I wouldn't mind hosting if people are realistic that it is not a bed and breakfast and the house is not a hotel but a family friendly doodle loving home with flaws. I live in Stratford Ontario and many people come here year after year to watch the world renowned plays at the Stratford Festival. I don't know what my husband would think. He would have to make the decision based on the time and what he has going on at that time. I wonder what insurance needs or other things like legalistic options would one need? To protect themselves incase a bad situation arose?
