The core of Airbnb culture is the creation of a single, inclusive community. This has a variety of implications, one of which emphasizes expansive boundaries of any given society. One of the benefits of unlocking a new sphere of the travel world is opening the floor to any and every interpretation of its values. This “stretchable” definition of community can be demonstrated not only by the varying backgrounds of Airbnb users but also by the varying listings they’re offering. You can find anything from planes, trains, and automobiles, to treehouses and igloos. Yep, Airbnb hosts are now offering you the opportunity to sleep on a branch or in an ice cube. Tempting, right? This kind of inclusivity fits perfectly in Airbnb’s “belong anywhere” branded identity, and it succeeds because people enjoy seeking out things that are fresh and different. Bringing imagination to life (ahem ahem, living underground) can be exhilarating, and free breakfast definitely doesn’t kill the thrill. Normally, travel is the means to new experiences, so why not top those experiences off with a unique way of living – such as in, say, an old school bus? Sounds logical, and that’s why it has been working so well for these types of Airbnb hosts. They really think outside-the-box and offer a new way of lodging for the idiosyncratic traveler: one that transcends the typical concept of “living quarters” and enters a new realm of what we consider a “residence”. In other words, living quarters that are, in reality, anything but. I’ll let you see for yourself, in this post.
