I've been meaning to do a post on this, glad someone finally pushed my buttons...
Yes, Hosting and getting CS bangs are great if you live in a city with a high amount of chicks coming through. Case in point My brother and his two friends live in the Harlem section of Manhattan right next to central park and they are cleaning up with bad chicks from all over the world. One of the dudes didn't even have a passport before and he picked up over 20 flags from chicks all over the world. They host Harlem CS parties every month and literally have it on lock. They literally have to filter through tons of messages daily but only host hot girls or cool looking dudes in cities they want to visit.
These are top notches chicks, many of them come to Harlem for a taste of the "African-American" experience since It is known that is what Harlem is known and is famous for...man the CS stories I have been told and have participated In...lol. Spanish, Nordic, Medittarean, Latina, Russian you name It they have banged It. It's to the point now where they don't even have to seriously date or campaign for chicks in NYC because the convience factor of having a International or US chick come for 1-3 nights, chill, fuck, cook and clean for you and dip out shortly thereafter with no strings attached. I mean really can you beat that?
If you live in NYC, Miami, San Francisco or Los Angeles and you have a bit of room you definitely need to be hosting as these are the main destination cities in the continental USA. In contrast I live in Atlanta and I get a good amount of requests but not near the level my boys in NYC and LA get. I've had two cs bangs from girls I've hosted here in ATL; one cute Blonde German girl who was with a mud duck friend and they were on a world trip and stopped through for a few nights I took them to some good hip hop clubs, soul food and strip clubs. Another girl was a hot french-morrocan girl from Paris who stayed with me for two days, she cooked for me daily and we had great conversation & off the hook sex and invited me to Paris this spring to stay with her so obviously hosting has its benefits and you become friends and have a place to stay or chill when u visit them.
Also I have a very player pad here in ATL, A tri-level, 3 bedroom/3 bathroom brownstone/townhouse in the city close to everything and directly on the train line easy to get to my place from the airport or bus station so since I have a spare room If I host two or more girls the one I want to bang will be crashing in my bed sooner or later. It's important to set the mood right and when chicks come to my pad when couchsurfing in other places they are especially impressed.
I have hosted mostly girl couples and a few single girls but my boys in NYC only usually host one girl at a time but will host more if they are hot. My brother has a larger place so he can host two at a time the other guys have studio apts in nyc which makes it condusive to only hosting one girl at a time. I also get a lot of couples requests but haven't hosted any since I have a hectic travel schedule and I just dont have the incentive to host them. My guy in LA has a large 3 bedroom townhouse in Los Angeles and he has hosted groups of chicks on the regular as well.
If you want to see a good example of a CS profile page, PM me I will send you one to model off of...this is how u want to set up your profile if you live in a heavily visited city like the ones I mentioned...he's a Savage but It's done very tastefully and since he lives in a highly visited traffice area he can get away with It. I have to set up my CS profile a bit less savage because If It was too forward I wouldnt get anyone wanting to stay here in ATL but when they arrive please believe I get it crackin.
Another good thing to do with a profile is to make it interactive...one example is have a list of 10 things about you and include one of them as being single and have your potential guest write back with the things you both have in common as a pre-requisite of hosting and knowing that your potential surfer has read your profile and is SINGLE as well as having a few things in common will speed things alot and make it fun as well
.
Also with regards to setting up your profile...put up alot pictures of you having fun out and about traveling or in your city you reside in and your couch and place to make it inviting to that weary traveler. Be descriptive in your profile It's an easy set up. If you want to get references without hosting/surfing join the local CS groups in your city. They have meetups weekly and you can meet cool people that way and check the message boards for other activities and meet people who will give you references since you have to actually meet the person to give a reference through CS.

I laughed out loud reading this for many reasons because this is EXACTLY how me and my boys think and live. I banged a few Couchsurfers when I used to live in San Francisco. I couldn't agree more about Swag's advice. There are certain cities where not being on CS is tantamount to missing out on some fine international talent: NYC, LA, SF, and Miami. NYC by far gets the most talent coming in. That's the favorite US city for Europeans and a visit is a rite of passage for them when they come to the US.
When I used to use CS, I lived in a convenient location in SF known as Hayes Valley, which was near the center (major thoroughfare with a BART station, Muni lines, etc). There were many cool bars and restaurants right in my neighborhood, and I had requests coming in daily from Couchsurfers from all over the world. The best part about that experience was it made me feel like I was still traveling, which was my main motivation (not the bangs). I simply liked meeting travelers and making connections. However, I got to meet and slay chicks from places as diverse as Israel, Denmark, Australia and Italy (Italian and Aussie chicks are the most consistently DTF). Quality was nothing to brag about, though a couple of chicks were dope, but for the effort and time invested, it's a good look. You learn from talking to these people too and have connections if you ever visit their cities. My profile had some serious DHV pictures from my travels and home life, and my references were from all kinds of different people, male and female, so that helped. I also occasionally met up with chicks for drinks and gave brief "tours" Casanova style. The chicks that prefer to meet for drinks are usually much more attractive than the ones that want you to host them. CS still hasn't really caught on with hot chicks because those kind of chicks for the most part are scared to travel alone. They also might not be comfortable staying in a stranger's home for lots of reasons. If a single traveler chick hits you up to host her, more often than not she's dtf, obviously.
What you said about NYC is hilarious because I got a homeboy in Brooklyn who is KILLING IT up there. He's got the Brooklyn scene LOCKED DOWN. He hosts single chicks and has his boy come through when there's a pair of chicks. They've done some truly wild things man. They've taken chicks to restaurants, smashed them in the bathrooms, and then have them foot the bill. They are getting into all kinds of ignorance. They probably have spawned "seeds" in many different countries.
I think Harlem is a great look though. Most chicks that visit NYC want to be in Manhattan for obvious reasons. The Harlem CS parties is an innovative idea. I know they're killing it.
Swag, you hit this one out the park. I wanted to make a thread about this so I'm glad to see someone beat me to it.
Long story short, the best utility you can get from CS for bangs is from being a host who lives in a "hot" city.
