So I have written, count them, five books now. But each time I'm in the writing process, I stay at an Airbnb. I love to stay at an Airbnb. When I was actually first launching this show, I was at an Airbnb in Arizona. It was so peaceful. It was stunning. I could be productive and comfortable. The Airbnb was also surrounded by a ton of javelinas.
If you know Arizona, you know they're like wild pig creatures. But honestly, I love them too. Being away for work, for fun, or both is a perfect opportunity to host your space on Airbnb. And if you think that hosting is overwhelming, I have a solve for you. With Airbnb's co-host network, it's easier than ever before to host. It's also a great way to earn some extra cash, which I know we all love.
Now you can hire a quality local co-host to take care of your home and your guests. They can do everything from creating your listing to managing reservations to messaging guests and even providing on-site support. So if you've got a secondary property or an extended trip coming up and you need a little help hosting while you're away, you can hire a co-host to do the work for you.
