For I shared a liquid diary of a long, post-partum, post-lockdown stay in France and Italy, and wrote about losing and finding myself and the monsters that came out along the way.

Get to know our Host community in Israel: meet Anat from Haifa who speaks multiple languages and gives every guest a packet of homemade cookies to take home with them. The extra money Anat earns from hosting helps her in an “indescribable way”, she says.

I just want to make a few things clear:
The Holocaust happened.
Hitler was a demonic figure.
And instead of giving it a platform, our political leaders should be calling out and rejecting antisemitism wherever it hides.
Silence is complicity.
So great to see this come to life yesterday! And shoutout to for making it happen!👏🏼 cc:

If Hosts have checkout requests, they should be reasonable and shown to you before you book.

4. You shouldn’t have to do unreasonable checkout tasks, such as stripping the beds, doing the laundry, or vacuuming. But we think it’s reasonable to turn off the lights, throw food in the trash, and lock the doors—just as you would when leaving your own home.

3. To enable Hosts to set more competitive prices, we’ll be launching new pricing and discount tools. Hosts told us they’d like our help to better understand the final price guests pay and what price to charge to stay competitive.
