Make friends all over the world. Then go visit them for free.
Everyone has that one friend who lives somewhere interesting and loves having people to stay. You come stay, they cook for you, show you around, take you on the little adventures you'd never find on your own. Now imagine thousands of those friends, all over the world. That's Adopted Adults.

why we built this
Airbnb has hosts. VRBO has hosts. Kindred has hosts. But somewhere in there, ‘host’ came to mean a lockbox and a welcome cookie. A good host cooks for you, shows you around, and somewhere along the way becomes your friend. There wasn’t a word for that anymore, so we picked one. Here, you don’t get hosted. You get adopted.
Read our story →I hope you become bigger than Airbnb or anything like this.
