Hi Vidisha, you will have to create a profile on http://couchsurfing.com. After that you can search for hosts in different cities in India. Is it safe? There are two things you can do to ensure safety: (i) Try to look for female hosts in your destination. Actually, most female hosts prefer to provide accommodation to other women so you shouldn't have a tough time finding female hosts. (ii) If you opt to contact male hosts then go thoroughly go through their profile. Put special emphasize on male hosts with good reviews from other female couchsurfers who have stayed with them. If they accept your request then chat with them for a few days prior to staying with them. Follow your gut feeling based on the chats. One thing I absolutely recommend is to not send requests to male hosts who have no reviews from other female couchsurfers. Couchsurfing is a great way to travel and get to know a place from local's perspective. I hope you have a good time Couchsurfing.
