At home, wherever you travel.

Breakfast, lunch or dinner at a Moroccan family's table. Say what you would like and what you will pay, and families nearby answer with what they are cooking.

Coming later? Book a table ahead, for a day up to two weeks away, near where you will be.

You name the price.

Not a menu you obey: an offer you make. Say what a meal is worth to you. A family accepts it, or proposes her own, and you choose. You pay her in cash at the table; only a table booked ahead carries a booking fee, paid online and taken off her price.

How it works

Three steps, and no surprise at the end of them.

  1. Say what you would like

    How many of you and your price, for a meal within two hours. First time: your email and your ID.

  2. Choose a family

    Families near you say which meal they serve, at what time and at what price. You choose one.

  3. The address, at once

    Your ID was checked at sign-up, so nothing waits. You pay the family in cash, at the table.

What actually happens

You are let in at the street door and your shoes come off. There is bread on the table before anything else, and tea poured from a height. The family eats with you: this is their dinner, not a service. You pay at the end, in cash, the price you agreed, and nobody expects a tip.

A Moroccan saying: “He who opens his house opens his heart.”

How we keep it safe

You are walking into a stranger's home, and you are not asked to trust blindly.

  • Families are checked
  • A hygiene charter
  • Reviews go both ways
  • Her meal, her time

Everything we check, and what we do not

Where Homnna works

We started in Morocco, where opening your home to a traveller is older than any app. More countries are next: a family's table is the same idea everywhere.
