                                Hello CouchSurfers!<br><br>We started CouchSurfing with a crazy idea in mind. We thought that maybe, just maybe, the world could be changed one couch at a time. 5,766,182 inspiring experiences later, we couldn't be more sure of it.<br>
<br>What you’ve done as a community has inspired us to take our mission and our vision to a whole new level. We want to understand what inspiring experiences are made of, so we can enable you to have more of them. We want to make CouchSurfing easier to use so that anyone who’s interested in changing the world one couch at a time will feel welcome here.<br>
<br>To accomplish this, we’re making a big change in structure. As of today, CouchSurfing is proud to announce that we are joining the growing ranks of certified B Corporations.<br><br>What does that mean? As a B (Benefit) Corporation, CouchSurfing will be part of a group of innovative businesses
that deliver products and services with a commitment to social and environmental responsibility, transparency, fair work conditions, and doing good for the world.<br><br>Want to learn more?<br><br><a href="http://www.couchsurfing.org/bcorp" target="_blank">Watch some quick videos explaining this new change</a><br>
