What's the couchsurfing activity like around here?

I lived my first 30 years in New Jersey, and when I got into couchsurfing, I did manage to host two people, but it was few and far between, and nothing like my experience in NYC.

Now I live in Binghamton! Hi everyone! :) How frequently do couchsurfers come by in these parts?

I managed to host a few Germans for a night on their road trip across the US in June. Maybe one request every 3-4 months is average for me.

I've hosted 3 couples so far, and had a few requests that ended up cancelling. Overall a great experience so far... mostly folks heading to Toronto. The most memorable was a couple from Finland. Binghamton was their first real experience with American culture... Took them out to Galaxy for food, craft beer and live music, and showed them around town a little. :) I did host one German woman!

I am new to the site and on that note, I hope to make some good connections from people passing through the area.

@leila That'd be awesome. It's a Friday, right? Is this supposed to be a CS potluck? Or a persian new year potluck, and CS people are invited as well?
