This is what happens when a travel app and a friend app have a baby. Instead of a $300-a-night Airbnb, you stay with locals for free. They share their food, their favorite hidden spots, and take you on all the little adventures they've mapped out for you. The only 'cost'? Making a new friend, and paying it forward when it's your turn to host.

why we built this
Airbnb has hosts. VRBO 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.
