If you haven't heard of Airbnb yet, you are in for a treat. It is a website where people rent out their homes to travelers. Because there is very little cost that goes into renting out one's home for the most part, people can charge less than hotels for better accommodations. And really, it's a win-win -- travelers get the comfort and amenities of a fully-equipped home while homeowners or renters can rent out their place and make some extra money while they are out of the house. I know people who use it to pay their rent! They put up their apartments for a week or so and stay at a friend's or go out of town and voila! Extra income!
I've used the site myself as a renter and it's been really great. My biggest concern at first was that people would steal my things or leave the place a pig-sty. Quite the contrary, the apartment has always been super clean when I've returned and nothing has been stolen as I take all the valuables to a neighbor's place. Granted, I'm sure I've been lucky, but you can choose who you rent to. If someone doesn't have a profile or has bad reviews, you don't have to rent to them. "The important to budget travel is to prepare onward. When it occurs to family trips, globetrotting, well-deserved trips and/or going to see new locations we have never been before, the fact of expense and budgeting is often in the back of our mind. Arranging and consuming our travel budget properly is a concern for most families. Lowering consuming and costs, while still savoring your vacation to its fullest, is the key to assured achievements and fiscal obligation. Your pocketbook and family will thank you! The thinking behind economizing money while vacationing is simple: Even if your personal finances is incredibly small, you can still take a break and enjoy life! Simply put, life is just too short to never step out of the door or departing the homestead! Also recalling that while traveling, whether on a resources or not, even the smallest of things can all add op to a large vacation or travel costs!..". Renters and guests leave reviews for eachother so you know who will be staying at your place or if the person you are renting from is less than accommodating.
