Also children no longer live at home, there Is space in my home. I have had exchange girls from Germany and Denmark for one year. A wonderful experience.

Ivanozka

About me
Hey there! It’s Ivanozka from Mexico City 🇲🇽 I’m a performer and filmmaker, currently working on an independent documentary and artistic research project. This journey will take me through 16 countries on a budget, guided by purpose, intuition and presence. My work explores various topics of memory, collective consciousness, myth, and the relationship between landscapes (especially the sea) and human experience. Exploring the physical, spiritual and rather personal frontiers we encounter in life. I’m utterly interested in culture, history, tradition, art, and music. I’m a musician and play in a couple of bands in my home country, I’m passionate about modular synthesis and sound exploration, and in that matter I’d like to think of myself as a collector in a way. I’m especially drawn to folk music, the Romani culture, sea legends, old cemeteries, and the stories that live beneath the surface of them. I’ll be waking up early and usually have full days of filming, recording, and writing, so I value calm environments, clear communication, and mutual respect. I enjoy meaningful conversations but I’m also very comfortable with silence and shared quiet. I love cooking and sharing a meal, and I’m excited to learn about local food. I live with my husband Tony, and my roommate Annie whom I’ll be traveling with. We share our life with our cats, Noche, Neftis, and Igor. I really appreciate the trust and care of you letting me stay with you, back in Mexico we actively host when we can. We love welcoming people from different communities and sharing a safe space. I value kindness, boundaries, and honest connection, and I take this opportunity as a way to remember that we’re all, reflections of a shared collective consciousness. Thank you for reading and for opening your home if we share this core values.

Elizabeth
Durham
Can host for:
3 days
About me
I love my city! I have been to over 29 different countries so I am well traveled. Durham is great because it blends intellect, creativity, and authenticity in a way few mid-sized cities manage. Anchored by Duke University and the Research Triangle, it attracts smart, curious people without feeling elitist. The food scene is nationally recognized yet still approachable, driven by chefs who experiment and stay rooted in the community. Durham’s arts and music culture feels lived-in, not performative, with murals, festivals, and local venues shaping daily life. Its Black history and civil rights legacy are visible and honored, giving the city depth and perspective. Nature is never far away, with trails, rivers, and forests minutes from downtown. The city is social and fun without being overwhelming, from Bulls games to DPAC shows to neighborhood farmers markets. Durham values individuality and weirdness, which fuels its reputation as “Little Portland” without copying anyone else. It’s a place where startups, nonprofits, artists, and families genuinely coexist. Most of all, Durham feels real—welcoming, evolving, and confident in exactly what it is.
