Resumo: This article addresses a social practice mediated by a virtual social network of travelers called Couchsurfing. Translated as "sofa surfing", this practice is known for the free hosting offer, worldwide, enabling online and offline interaction between registered individuals, as well as promoting the exchange of hospitality, in which host becomes a guest in other travel situations and vice versa. In this research, the hosts and guests of the municipality of Jaguarão, located in the extreme south of the state of Rio Grande do Sul (RS), Brazil, were investigated. The objectives of the article are to identify and discuss the main interests and motivations for the network and Couchsurfing trips among Jaguarian hosts and guests, as well as to understand the system of exchange between guests and hosts inspired by the studies of hospitality based on the Theory of Gift , by Marcel Mauss. The research had a qualitative approach and approached the etnographic method. The methodological course included a bibliographical study and a cyberspace field research, with semi-structured interviews and observations. The exchanges take place online and offline, in different prisms. The research presents new challenges for tourism, leisure and hospitality studies in the context of emerging social practices, such as Couchsurfing.

En el caso de que se trate de un "surfe de sofá", esta práctica es conocida por la oferta gratuita de hospedaje, mundialmente, viabilizando la interacción online y offline entre los sujetos registrados, además de promover el cambio de hospitalidad, en que anfitrión se convierte en huésped en otras situaciones de viaje y viceversa. En esta investigación, fueron investigados los anfitriones y huéspedes del municipio de Jaguarão, ubicado en el extremo sur del estado de Rio Grande do Sul (RS), Brasil. Los objetivos del artículo son identificar y discutir los principales intereses y motivaciones por la red y por los viajes Couchsurfing entre los anfitriones y huéspedes jaguarenses, así como comprender el sistema de intercambios entre huéspedes y anfitriones teniendo como inspiración los estudios de la hospitalidad basados en la Teoría de la Dádiva de Marcel Mauss. La investigación tuvo un enfoque cualitativo y se acercó al método etnográfico virtual. El recorrido metodológico contó con estudio bibliográfico e investigación de campo ciberespacial, con entrevistas semiestructuradas y observaciones. Los intercambios se dan de manera online y offline, en diferentes prismas. La investigación presenta nuevos desafíos para los estudios del turismo, ocio y hospitalidad en el contexto de prácticas sociales emergentes, como el Couchsurfing.Este artigo aborda uma prática social mediada por uma rede social virtual de viajantes denominada Couchsurfing.
