http://tastytum.com - One week event in Berlin to match hosts and locals over food.

Assumption is that an event like this might be less scary compared to AirBnB style of renting your flat away.

If someone is in Berlin and interested to host, would love to hear from you!

Others that are also trying in that field: - Housefed - GrubWithUs: http://www.grubwithus.com

Housefed tries to build up a community first before getting into hosting meals (http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2379797). We go the opposite road and try to validate our assumptions as fast as possible. I believe we can (in)validate many assumptions while extracting lots of information by running a one week experiment, which also doesn't cost us much either.

Feedbacks so far mostly through friends, but also reaching out to people on twitter (e.g: https://twitter.com/#!/lorenbaxter/status/96319791110946816)
