Editor's Notes
- LAST night 50,000 people rented accommodation from Airbnb! And this is not a local phenomenon. They rented in 35,000 cities in 192 countries.
- And when you’re on the road, say goodbye to hotel lobby bars.
- Say goodbye to eating alone.
- Eat with Stephanie and Larry in Brussels.
- I thought to myself… this can’t be right. Foodies are on the rise, social networks are on the rise, and travel expenditures continue to grow, even during the last crisis!
- Why not turn the extra seats at your table into bring people together through food?
- They said “You’re crazy”.
- What do you do when you have an idea that won’t go away? You do your homework. You talk to people. Friends, family, investors… I wanted to know what people thought about my idea that we could apply the sharing economy to peoples’ kitchen tables. [PAUSE] Do you know what they said?
- In addition to BookaLokal’s growth, others have entered the market as well. Just in the last 6 months, 3 players including BookaLokal have raised $15 million in venture capital to bring food into the sharing economy. So I ask you: Am I crazy? Is the sharing economy crazy?
