The Founding 50

Boody opens with fifty hosts. They are chosen one at a time, in conversation, and they will set what this place is before anyone else arrives.

Fifty, to begin.

A dinner, an exhibition, a Saturday with nothing in it. Boody is where a plan and the right person arrive together, and that only works if the first people here are the right ones. Fifty is enough to make it true in a city. It is small enough that we will know all of you.

After fifty, Boody keeps going. New hosts are welcome — on ordinary terms, without what is on this page. The founding terms are for the people who set the tone, and they do not come back.

The terms

What founding hosts have.

None of this is introductory. It does not quietly end.

You keep everything, 5 times over

Boody takes nothing from your first 5 bookings. You are paid the full amount the guest pays. After that, our share is 15%.

Founding Host

It sits on your profile and it stays there. There will not be a second fifty.

You are seen first

Founding hosts are shown ahead of everyone else while Boody is new.

We build your profile with you

Your words, your plans, your photographs. Nothing is published that you have not read.

A shoot with a photographer we trust

A good location and an afternoon. The images are yours, whatever happens after.

€75 for anyone you bring

Paid when the person you introduced is accepted and has hosted 3 times.

Our numbers, not a support form

WhatsApp. You will be talking to the people building Boody.

The founding circle

Dinners, shoots, and small sessions where we ask what is wrong with Boody.

Paid work comes here first

Featured plans, brand collaborations and special requests are offered to founding hosts before anyone else.

How it goes.

Four steps. About a week.

One

You apply

Twenty minutes. Who you are, where you are, and the plans you would genuinely want to host. You can stop and come back.

Two

We talk

Twenty minutes on the phone. You are deciding about us as much as we are deciding about you.

Three

We make the profile

Words, plans, photographs. Nothing goes anywhere until you have read it.

Four

You open

With the badge, shown first, and nothing taken from your first 5 bookings.

Who we're looking for.

We are not counting followers. The question is narrower than that: is an evening with you one someone would want again.

  • You are 21 or over, and will verify it.
  • Your photographs are recent, and of you.
  • You answer requests. No is an answer.
  • You know your boundaries and you keep them.
  • You are good company. That is the entire product.

Fifty places.

If you have read this far, you are probably one of them.
