Frequently asked questions

How long can I stay with a host?+

That's between you and your host. Most stays range from one to five nights. Longer stays are possible if both sides agree β€” just communicate clearly up front, and be realistic about what's sustainable for your host.

What if a stay doesn't go well?+

You can leave an honest review and report any issues to the Sofahop team. The mutual review system means bad actors quickly become visible to the rest of the community. It's self-correcting: the people who stay active are the people who take the exchange seriously.

What if I just want to meet travelers, not host them?+

That's fully supported. You can set your profile to 'meet travelers' rather than 'host', and connect for coffee, city tours, or local tips without offering accommodation. Many active Sofahop members never host β€” they just enjoy the connections.

Can I use Sofahop as a local to meet travelers visiting Dhekiajuli?+

Absolutely. Many Sofahop members in Dhekiajuli aren't hosting β€” they're meeting travelers for coffee, showing them around, or just connecting with interesting people passing through India. The platform supports all levels of engagement.

How is Sofahop funded if it's free?+

Sofahop is community-funded and built by people who believe travel and human connection shouldn't cost money. Optional premium features may be added in future, but the core will always be free. The commitment to free is foundational, not provisional.

Are there many hosts in Dhekiajuli?+

The community in Dhekiajuli is growing. The platform is newer than CouchSurfing, which means the network is still building β€” but it's building in the right direction, with hosts who joined specifically because they believe in the free model.

Do I need to speak the local language in Dhekiajuli?+

Not necessarily. Many hosts in Dhekiajuli speak English or other widely spoken languages. Sofahop also supports 50+ languages, so you can often find hosts who communicate in a language you share. A few words of the local language always helps.

Is Sofahop available on mobile?+

The web platform works on all mobile devices. A native app is in development for iOS and Android. In the meantime, the mobile browser experience is fully functional for searching, messaging, and managing your profile.

What should I do on my first night in Dhekiajuli as a Sofahop guest?+

Talk to your host. Ask them about the city, their favourite spots, what you shouldn't miss. Don't disappear into your phone or your laptop. The first evening with your host is often the most valuable part of a Sofahop stay β€” it sets the tone for everything that follows.

Is Sofahop really free?+

Yes β€” completely. There are no subscription fees, no booking fees, and no charges for hosts or travelers. The platform was built specifically as a free alternative to CouchSurfing, and it will stay free. That's a design choice, not a business model in transition.
