You people have no idea how far away I live. Of course, if you can get here, I can accommodate you with sleeping bags, sun loungers, a few beds, and sofas. (This is a safe offer on my part.)
I've organized a couple of meet-ups for my husband's friends in the US. The key is a good location, a FIRM date decided well in advance, and reasonable accommodation available. By good location, it should be a hub city or a city served by many regional airlines.
Our last one was held in Vegas, Baby!
