But it's a great place to start. Funny - I keep meeting people I know who are signed up for it. Of course most are in their early 20s and travel with a backpack and not 3 pieces of luggage and a laptop like me! Yeah Harvey - 6 months might be pushing the couchsurfing thing.

If improving Japanese is the goal, dive right in.

I hope that doesn't end your Japan quest. Never give up! Kitty! I did think about mentioning couchsurfing.conm, but I think if you tried to stay at someones house for six months to a year on that program, you would be more like a "couch squatter"! Thanks for the info everyone!
