SAFAROTO was started by Othmane Rahmouni  (or OTO as his friends like to call him).  As soon as he started traveling full-time in November 2017, he found himself organizing trips for his friends to join him in different corners of the world along with other travelers and locals he met across different countries.

As more and more people join the SAFAROTO community, his vision is to create a technology platform that can help members connect with each other while making it easier and more affordable to travel together around the world.
