How close do you live to your listing? 📍

[Rebecca]

Hi everyone 👋

It got me thinking that not every host is just around the corner from their listing.

Some of you might only be a few minutes away, while others could be managing your accommodation from a completely different town, city, or even country.

How far away do you live from your listing, and roughly how long would it take you to get there?

Whether it's a quick five-minute drive or a flight across the world, it'd be really interesting to see just how spread out our community is.

Looking forward to hearing your answers! 👇

We definitely enjoy it! However it's important to close the calendar from time to time, to prevent host fatigue (as Brian has called it once).

I get that. Like your 'hosting battery' drains and you need to recuperate! 🔋 @Till-and-Jutta0  How long do you usually press pause for when you need a break? 😊

Hi @Rebecca 

Normally I’m only 3–5 minutes away by car if anything comes up, but at the moment I’m about a 20-hour flight away. 😂 Thankfully, everything can still be handled remotely, so guests are well taken care of.

😂 @Patricia2526  Are you on holiday? It's great that everything can be done remotely!

I live in the Netherlands, and our 3 rental homes are 9,000 km away in Curaçao.
