Become a Local Buddy

Connect travelers. Build community. Earn locally.

What is a Local Buddy?

A Local Buddy is someone open-minded, who knows the local culture, traditions, and true spirit of their area. Anyone can apply by passing a short test. Once accepted into the community, Local Buddies get free membership, discounts on experiences and souvenirs, and can earn by joining eco-trips as co-leaders. In return, they share their knowledge to help eco-travelers connect more deeply with the destination.

Local Buddies can share local knowledge, recommend sustainable spots, and optionally offer their own services or products to increase their visibility and reach.
