FAQ

What's the difference to BeWelcome?

BeWelcome is a project with great volunteers, unfortunately it doesn't seem to catch on. Nomadbase takes a different approach to hospitality exchange. The software we use is free and very modular and if there is consensus among BeWelcome volunteers we will be very happy to work on any form of integration.

What's the difference to CouchSurfing?

CouchSurfing is great, and even though it's growing rapidly, it has become a bit stagnant. It's great to have a network of 1 million people who surf each other's couches, we want to extend the sharing and to let other people help develop the network and the underlying infrastructure. We also want to try out a different form of hospitality, with more focus on sharing.

What's the difference with Hospitality Club?

See above, only in a more extreme way.

Is there an official organization?

No.

What are you trying to achieve?

Many things. Sharing, adventure, fun, conviviality, freedom of information, free software. What are you trying to achieve?

Can I help?

Yes, please! We need nomads who want to help. Just edit this wiki...

How do you fund this project?

So far it didn't cost very much. We plan on funding it through other projects that are related to this project - such as building Drupal websites for NGOs.

Will there be advertising?

No Google Ads! No annoying banners!

I love this, how can I add our base?

Add a location to this wiki
