I have been member of HE for 12 years 
and absolutely love this community! Connecting with all of you and expanding the Home Exchange network has become a passion and life purpose for me. While the home swaps are amazing, the magic is always the people.
I am dreaming of a new feature that could take our community to the next level: a dedicated, real-time “Hangout / Meet Up” button directly in our app.
The concept is all about spontaneity on the ground. Imagine landing in a city, opening the app, and toggling yourself to “active” for the day. You could put a quick status online like “Grabbing coffee by the harbor, anyone want to join?” or “Looking to explore the local markets this afternoon!”
Any nearby members, whether they are traveling guests or local hosts, could see you are free and connect for a spontaneous meetup. It turns our incredible accommodation network into a live, fluid social network wherever we are in the world.
Would love to hear your thoughts! Would you use a live meetup feed to connect with nearby Exchangers while on the road?
Let’s bring the world a little closer together!
