Default You be my guest and I'll be yours..

I sometimes wonder why it has to be so expensive to travel when lot of us have extra rooms in our homes and can lodge a couple of couples for a night or two and in return they would lodge my wife and I at their homes at some other date. Great way to see the continent.

Is there such a registry?

We live in Edmonton Alberta and travel south a lot. We on the other hand would like to host a some people from ??? that are on their way to the Rockies or the "Mall" or elsewhere.

Interested?

P & I

I have an extra room for most visitors who ride down my way ... Usually my door is open to most but have been known to kick a few out as well...

This sounds like an excellent idea. Sort of a time share for motorcycle travelers.
