Growing up the daughter of a flight attendant afforded me a lifetime of travel and seeded a passion for connecting with kindred spirits. Like so many travelers, I crave the personal, authentic cultural experience of staying in a well-loved home. Having worked several years in luxury hospitality management before studying residential architecture, I started awayintheworld to help other creative professionals craft their own way to freedom and economic stability in the global sharing economy.
Our mission is to bring together like-minded hosts and travelers in places consciously designed to enrich the lives of both.
We look forward to getting to know you,
Melissa Vanderburg, founder awayintheworld
