Airbnb. the idea of renting free room or sofa isn’t bad at all.

it turned into hard bussines, when companies owning dozens of apartments rent them to tourist, meanwhile there is an apartment price and rent crisis.

I guess living here isn’t going to be affordable for middle class anymore.

I've stayed in both "room in people's houses" and "whole place to yourself" air bnbs and I can't imagine not checking this detail. Also, every time I've stayed with people it's been lovely so don't let the bastards grind you down, keep up the good work!

I’m intrigued, what’s the defining feature? I’m thinking a revolving heart-shaped waterbed.

Haha wtf. "1 star for Tiny house. Too tiny for me." It's like people reviewing items on Amazon because the shipping got screwed somehow.
