Reduce Travel Risks
Reduce risks of traveling to a new city or country by knowing locals in that location who can help you navigate and gain familiarity, improving the overall travel experience. You will also enjoy peace of mind heading to trusted places with no chance of last minute changes. The trusted nature of the app eliminates the randomness of sites like Airbnb and VRBO, improving safety as all travel destinations are with people that are known to you, or are trusted by people that you trust. Also, because expectations are clear before you leave home, you won’t have to worry about being a “bad guest”.
Cost Savings Opportunities
Staying with friends, family and trusted connections enables you as a traveler to treat hosts to dining or experiences since you save on lodging. This also enables longer stays!

Greater Exploration Opportunities
Here you can expect greater personal exploration opportunities through the ability to turn a “friend of a friend” into your own friend and increase your access to other accommodations or experiences through their network. This will create opportunities for reciprocation of sharing with bi-directional sharing within your trusted network. People with a sharing spirit and underutilized spaces normally have others in their network who are in a similar situation, creating opportunities for house swaps and exchange of favors if the network is well-managed and participation is encouraged.
You will also gain the ability to visit more places, as many people are reluctant to put homes on Airbnb or VRBO but would be willing to share with friends and family. Depending upon your network, the quality of offerings might be improved as those with higher value homes tend to want to share them not for money but to be generous. Also, Hosts who welcome family and friends tend to share the use of their cars, boats, sporting and other equipment as part of their guests’ trip.
