An Experience That Feels Human Kindred
Kindred, for me, has been a deeply life-expansive journey. I never imagined I would have the chance to stay in such beautiful homes around the world, or meet such incredible, kind humans along the way. Before Kindred, I had never home swapped. It completely shifted how I see travel, and in many ways, it has made me a better, more open person. I’ve grown in unexpected ways. I’ve stayed in three homes with cats, and I never thought I was a cat person. Now, I genuinely love it. It’s opened up a whole new kind of softness in me. I recently stayed in a family home, and something as simple as seeing the children’s books and crafts left out stirred something deeper. It made me reflect on the kind of life I want to build one day. These are the quiet, beautiful moments that make Kindred what it is. There’s so much thoughtfulness in every part of it, from the app, to the concierge, to the care in each home, to the kindness of the community, and the way the team shows up with intention. It never feels transactional, it feels genuinely human. I’m deeply grateful to be part of this journey and community.
