Tripping

Tripping is a place for cultural exchange through travelling. It offers you a stay with local hosts of the place you are travelling to. Hosts can, through Tripping, get the chance to welcome travellers to their city or town.

This hospitality network works towards making the world a more tolerant place through cultural exchange. Trippers can through their exchange with the locals learn more about the place than they would just by sightseeing. Hosts can too, without even leaving their homes, get to experience the culture of foreigners.

The community at Tripping relies on the generosity of locals who welcome Trippers to experience their own culture. Trippers can, in turn, return the favour by helping with household chores, bringing in a bottle of wine or just sharing stories of their lives.

As there is no money involved, you get to feel rich on Tripping experiences.

The members of Tripping connect with each other and exchange travel tips and their experiences. Tripping has homestay contacts in over 175 countries.

Tripping provides travellers and locals a safe and easy way to engage in cultural exchange through which a vacation can turn into a meaningful and life-changing experience.

Along with connecting travellers with local hosts, Tripping also offers aggregation of the widest selection of local home rentals around the world. Travellers can use the service to find unique local spaces in over 15,000 cities world over.

Tripping was found in 2009 by Nate Weisiger and Jen O’Neal. They found the unique mixture of technology and travel, both of which are their passion.
