Rent a Local Friend

The RALF manifesto

RALF community is an open invitation to (re)connection, openness, learning, awaking and serendipity.

When we travel, we are back to our natural state of curiosity. Our mind and hearts are open for better understand the world we live in.

We all love to travel but nobody really likes to be a tourist. Connecting with local people is a natural immersive experience into the heart of a new culture.

We all love to travel but nobody really likes to be a tourist. Connecting with local people is a natural immersive experience into the heart of a new culture.

We can surrender and indulge ourselves on a genuine local exploration to get to know hidden gems and allow our life to be transformed by the lives of others

A Local Friend is a facilitator to a community based tourism to expand our personal frontier and perspectives. Every encounter is unique and authentic opportunity for personal growth and transformation.

We profoundly believe that the antidote for a fragmented world is to (re) connect with each other and enjoy our multiple spectrum of cultures and unique points of view.

Be part of our community to sparkle new encounters and create a positive impact
