Thanks Samokan for the site. Firebird, yeah, the best tip is to look at the people who are in the front pages of your desired city on Couchsurfing as they are the most active members. So if I want to stay in Tokyo I should look to contact the people on the first or second page since they frequently log in and host as opposed to the other pages of people you don't log in often. Your search automatically sorts out which people are most active which is helpful. Also, the Couchsurfing site seems to be more active than the Hospitality Club one so I'll probably be using that site most and occasionally looking at the Hospitality Club one if I need to. If I go it will be in late-May so it will be a long time until I can update you on my situation.
