In Majorca there are 5,804 users of the couchsurfing system. Started in 2004, there are now over 400,000 users worldwide. The word couch is somewhat symbolic; bed is usually more accurate. It is a free means of obtaining accommodation, and the 5,800 users in Majorca offer space in their homes to what are currently 300 people registered as looking for accommodation on the island, mainly in Palma. These users, in turn, can seek accommodation elsewhere.
