Hello  – 

As we near the end of February and we see seasons changing across the globe, many of us are hoping to resume our cycling plans and open our doors to new connections.  

We have many exciting things happening at Warmshowers Foundation - new partnerships, special offers for users, and more ways to connect.

We are especially excited to share the good news that the apps are again LIVE. We received tremendous support from our global community while we secured our data and addressed unauthorized apps. If you have already downloaded the app on any device, you should now be able to resume login and regular use.  If you have not yet downloaded the app - here are the links to do so:

For Androids, click HERE

For iPhones: click HERE

Of course, the app is 100% optional and you can always access your account through your web browser.  

Thank you again for your patience and for being part of our community!

If you have questions about the use of the mobile app, the situation that occurred with an unauthorized app or would like to know more about Warmshowers Foundation, click HERE for an in-depth statement.

Warmshowers Foundation's mission is to help connect people with a passion for bicycle touring and hosting around the world so that no matter where you find yourself on a bike, there is a host with a warm shower to welcome you. Through these shared experiences, we create connections that can break down stereotypes, walls, and fears and make the world a smaller place. We hope you stay healthy, and we look forward to seeing you out on the road again soon.

Meet Anastasia Bouzdine, a 25-year-old woman on a mission to connect with humanity on a bicycle.

Anastasia is an engineer, working in a male-dominated field and surrounded by men who do many sport challenges. She decided that if the men could do it, so could she. After trying a few short cycling trips, Anastasia made her first solo trip in September of 2020.

She set off on an exhausting 10-day journey across the Alps with the end goal of taking a little swim in the Mediterranean Sea. Anastasia says that when she started, the trip was all about how far or how fast she could travel in a day. But after a few days, she realized that the trip was more about the experiences and the people she met along the way.
