What made sofa surfing such a powerful idea was always the exchange, not the sofa. Sofahop understands that. The platform facilitates connection; the spare sleeping space is just the mechanism. In Ceamurlia de Sus, Sofahop hosts are people who chose to be part of that exchange β freely and deliberately.
