I just accepted my 100th reservation.....how good is that!
I wish I could adequately describe what this experience has meant to me!
Before I embarked on hosting I had no idea how many wonderful people there are out there in this world and this has rubbed off on me! To start with I just provided basically four walls and a bed because I felt that extra bit of money would be nice. But as guests came to me, they wanted to relate to me and take away some of my life and what this area has to offer.....so I have provided more and more to give my guests the best that I can!
Well the reward is, hosting, (including Airbnb) has enabled me to buy a houseboat on the River Murray which I now intent to add to my hosting options!
It is powered by a couple on Honda 120hp outboards which give it the necessay zip to get along the river!
Features a really generous living area with all mod cons
One of the three bedrooms
Have now replaced that outdoor setting with the one in the previous shot, but Jacuzzi remains intact on the upper deck!!
Although it's an relatively old boat now (ten years) it is in great condition and we have inherited bookings into 2018. The River Murray is 3,000 Kms long so there is no holiday that could become boring on this boat!
I could not have done this without what Airbnb has done for me.
I see so much negativity on the forum but, to all of you......I can't really imagine how life could get much better......And hosting has had a big part in that!!
I will post a listing for this soon
Cheers....Rob
