Airbnb

Airbnb has become a market in itself in recent years. If you don't mind the occasional guest in your home, you have a spare property or you would like to make some money while you are away yourself, you can offer space for sale. Customers often enjoy it as a different experience than a hotel, and owners can earn some serious money by signing up.
