it strikes me as being rather narcissistic. a total focus on and love of self to the point of walking away from all of life's other responsibilities of home ownership/apartment dwelling and so on. these are folks with good jobs and good money that don't want to play in the adult end of the pool. my son is in D.C. and has done a great deal of couch surfing over the past couple of years simply because he has had several places he was trying to buy bought out right from under him.
I momentarily tried to look at it as a new breed of "cowboy" but even that doesn't qualify
