About the organizer
Kindred is a members-only home-swapping network built on a close-knit community. We make travel more affordable and accessible by allowing you to earn credits for hosting others, either through swaps or while you're away. No money is exchanged between members; everything runs on a simple credit system. Instead of overpaying for rentals while your home sits empty, we empower our members to explore their next destination conveniently and affordably, while fostering a trusted community of people who seek to live a travel-rich lifestyle.
