And the Hospitality club on "Radio without Borders".

The social events will be open to anyone. The organizers of The Paris Rendez-Vous are holding this fun event in order to make the existing European and Parisian CouchSurfing community stronger and to bring new members on board. Please invite your friends who are not yet CouchSurfers.
Members may also want to attend the meetings and workshops to improve CouchSurfing. Learn how to become a CouchSurfing volunteer and how to be more active in your community. Learn about how to become a CouchSurfing Ambassador. Or just enjoy sharing stories with other active CouchSurfing members.
The planned activities include a treasure hunt in the Paris city center, a picnic and two sight-seeing tours of the Parisian Quarters including a tour based on the popular French film "Le Fabuleux destin d'Am�lie Poulain", also know as "Am�lie".

There were over 300 couches listed in the Austin, Texas area. Austin is certainly a hotbed for couchsurfers.
