Hi! That's what we are building for at Kommu!

Kommu is a mobile-first social network that allows users to (1) discover and coordinate travel with friends and connections, and (2) propose home exchanges within their personal trusted circles to travel more affordably.

We are prepping to launch by EOY, but if you sign up for the waitlist (gokommu.com) then you can apply to join the members Slack group where friends of friends are actively listing places for swaps and exchanges.

It sounds like your target users are digital nomads with location-flexible work, and travel with laptops.

I'm in this audience, and avoid anything 'mobile-first' like the plague. I want a website I can access on a laptop/desktop, I don't like pecking out messages on my phone, and definitely don't want to install a beta app on my phone.

Hah, I thought of Kommu when I saw this post! I've used their slack to stay in NYC and had someone stay at my place in Austin. Would (and have) recommend to a friend
