Gotcha! I saw this trend, and honestly, being a short term rental host was a little too easy. 😂
I give complete strangers the code to my property.
I let them sleep in my bed, use my kitchen, and hang out on my patio while I’m nowhere nearby.
Sometimes they book months in advance based on a few photos I posted on the internet.
Then after they leave, I clean up after them, change the sheets, restock the snacks, and hope they decide I’m worthy of 5 stars.
The craziest part? They pay me for it.
What started as a side hustle has turned into meeting people from all over the world, helping create girls’ weekends, family vacations, anniversaries, and celebrations that people remember for years.
But when you really break it down…
“I give strangers the code to my house and let them sleep in my bed” sounds a lot more suspicious though 😂
Vacation rental hosts, the weirdest way you can describe your job? And everyone else....what does YOUR job sound like when you make it sound illegal? 👇
