I'm using airbnb for my work trip. Renting out a room in an older lady's home. That should really be the only way airbnb functions.
10 years ago, Couchsurfing was like this, I don't know how it evolved since then
12 years ago I used Airbnb to lodge around Japan for a trip, just slept on some dude’s couch, we went out for drinks. It was pretty sweet back then.
