Free Camping, Hotels And Lodging For Your Travels (Video Recording)

February 16, 2010 by Darren Alff

Earlier tonight I held a live video broadcast on Ustream where I spent a little over a half-hour discussing the topic of free lodging for bicycle travelers.

I promised to record the event for those of you who were unable to attend the live broadcast, but (would you believe it!) I forgot to press the record button until I was about half-way through the broadcast.

But don’t worry!

I promised to record the entire thing for you… so I went back and re-recorded the entire event for those of you who were unable to attend the live airing. It took some time, but I did it… just for you!

The video above is approximately 35 minutes in length and I highly recommend you watch the entire thing. In the video I mention a number of different website resources and other information you can use to find free accommodations on you travels.

In the video I also discuss “The Ultimate Guide To Free Lodging,” which you can read more about by visiting the address listed below:

    This was very helpful. Thanks!

    Your link to Couch Surfing is misspelled. I figured it out too.

    HI Sara,

    All of the information covered in this video (and a whole lot more) can be found here: http://bicycletouringpro.com/blog/traveling-cyclists-guide-to-free-hotels-campgrounds/ The Ultimate Guide to Free Lodging is a 100-page write up of everything I have ever done to obtain free hotels and campgrounds for my travels. And it walks you through the process of how to get free lodging on your travels as well. Hope that helps!

    Hey you’ve done a great job with your website. Love all the tips. You should write a guide on how to be an internet entrepreneur with your website– doing what you love, which has worked out well for you.
