Maru and I are away for the long weekend with good friends in the English countryside.
This is the fourth time we’re staying in an AirBnb that’s a standalone unit next to the owner’s home. Rather than the highly commercialised feel of AirBnbs within cities, it really does feel like the experience AirBnb set out to build: people opening up their homes to travellers.
One thing that I’ve found about these properties in particular is that everything’s just works. The care and thought put into the space and the amenities make the stay easy and enjoyable. It’s a distinctly different feel to the more commercial AirBnbs where it’s clear they’ve tried to cut a few too many corners.
It reminds me of the quote: how you do anything is how you do everything.
