Come be part of the first CouchCrash in Buffalo since 2012!! We’ll explore Niagara Falls, taste our way through Buffalo’s iconic food scene (yes… wings included), enjoy a picnic by the water, and head out for a fun bar crawl in some of our favorite neighborhoods. This Couch Crash is meant to be welcoming, social, and laid-back — a space to meet new friends, share stories, and experience Buffalo through the eyes of locals while still having plenty of time to wander, explore, and recharge. 🏠 Accommodation I’ll have a few hosting spots available, and I’m also inviting other Buffalo Couchsurfers to join as hosts. Space is limited, so please don’t rely on guaranteed housing — travelers are encouraged to arrange their own accommodation. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me (Jake) directly for help!! 🌍 Who this event is for Travelers, locals, first-time Couch Crashers, seasoned wanderers — anyone who believes in connection, curiosity, and community. Come as you are, bring good energy, and be ready to explore. 📅 Dates September 10–14 — come for the whole weekend or drop in for part of it. 🔜 Schedule TENTATIVELY Wednesday 9/9: DAY ZERO 7 pm: Pre-crash hangout.
