Chapter 8: Best Mini Vacas on the Cheap with your iPhone!

Hello All. Before I begin, I would like to share a picture of my best friend during my last travel delay of 2 1/2 hours:


All hail to the lifesaver of the day: Michelob Ultra!


Now...Let's begin with my new favorite thing on the planet. A travel service (which comes along with a new handy iPhone app) called "airbnb". 

airbnb is a website that connects travelers looking for eclectic places to stay around the world (instead of a hotel). It lists bed & breakfasts, lofts, eclectic vacation rentals, etc... The best part is that travelers stay in local spots, instead of touristy areas. Hosts of these rentals post pictures of their space and charge per night. Here is a picture of a loft in Bellevue, Washington for approx. $120/night.


Because airbnb also has an iPhone app, travelers may book their stay right from their phone. I think this is perfect for the spontaneous jetsetter! Also, the prices vary to serve a traveler on any budget!

Check it out www.airbnb.com or download the airbnb app to your phone.

In the future, if you choose to use airbnb or have used airbnb before, please post your comments and ratings below!

Happy Traveling!
