Here’s the setup:
☝️ eight innovators
☝️ one minivan
☝️ one host — facilitator, driver, and vibe curator in one

No screens. No endless scrolling. No AI.
Just real conversations, beautiful nature, spontaneous moments, and maybe a glass of wine. Or two 😏
Localie launched networking trips in Amsterdam in November 2022 targeting international professionals in tech and creative industries. We have hosted more than 200 trips and helped over 500 talents to connect in a time when loneliness is everywhere. Our community members found new friends, future co-founders, new jobs, creative collaborators and even life partners.
Now, for the very first time ever, we’re bringing this format to San Francisco for just a few weekends.
Bring your friends, invite your colleagues, tell your community — and be among the first to experience it.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
1️⃣ DOOR-TO-DOOR PICKUP
In the morning, your host picks you up right from your doorstep in our minivan. The host is your driver, but also professional facilitator with a tech background, there to make everyone feel comfortable and help the group connect from the very beginning.
2️⃣ A DAY PLANNED AND ORGANIZED FOR YOU
We take care of everything. The day is thoughtfully designed and filled with fun, relaxing activities to help you unwind after a busy week. No stress, no logistics, no planning — just hop in and enjoy the ride.
3️⃣ FROM STRANGERS TO FRIENDS
The facilitator’s mission is simple: turn a group of nine strangers into a warm group of close friends. Expect meaningful conversations, unexpected stories, and inspiring people you probably wouldn’t have met otherwise.
4️⃣ BRING YOUR CHALLENGE — AND YOUR SUPERPOWER
On every trip, we invite everyone to share two things: what challenge they’re currently facing, and what they can offer to others. Sometimes one conversation can unlock an idea, solve a problem, or give a long-stuck project the push it needed.
5️⃣ HOME AGAIN, RECHARGED
At the end of the day, we’ll bring you back to your doorstep feeling refreshed, inspired, and full of energy.
💰 Everything is included in the price:
— all transfers from your doorstep and back
— the full-day trip program
— vineyard tastings
— morning brunch and dinner.
Just jump in — and forget everything else until midnight 😉
