Drew Seitam & Kathy Leach
Drew and his wife, Kathy, founded People Like Us in 2018, after a family conversation on a trip through Europe about how to travel for months at a time without the cost of hotels. Rather than join an existing network, they set out to build their own, one shaped by its members and run on trust and generosity. Based in Sydney, they stay closely involved in the community day to day, and are keen advocates for home exchange as a warmer, more affordable and more human way to see the world.
