![]() See, simple! And people wonder why I avoided giving them my address… It wasn’t quite the right fit long term so came back to our fav place once more. We didn’t love it there, so went back to our old favourite until the Christmas break and when we came back decided to stay near the beach again but in a different suburb. Then we went on holiday so moved out for 3 weeks before coming back and deciding to stay near the beach. I appreciate it looks a bit all over the place, but hear me out… We had to leave the first place in Northbridge as there was another booking halfway through our first 2 months, and we moved right back. We stayed in 4 Airbnb’s while living in Perthįor context, the timeline of our Airbnb experiences went like this: We saw the good and the bad sides of it all – from the kindness of local hosts to massively oversold accommodation. And it taught us about Airbnb as a platform. It taught us about long term holiday rentals. It taught us about living together as a couple for the first time. Yes, it had quirks and aspects we didn’t love, but whose home doesn’t? But within a couple of months we soon found that the flat we’d taken a chance on before even stepping foot in Australia felt more like home than we’d have imagined. I’ll admit, I was apprehensive of not having a proper place to call home for a whole year. Living in an Airbnb when you move abroad isn’t going to sound that appealing to most. It’s the first place we lived together after beating long distance at last, and the lifestyle we enjoyed opened our eyes to a new perspective. Here are a few things we learned from living in an Airbnb for a year. However, this has meant we’ve gained a very unique experience of Airbnb’s and holiday rental accommodation – both from a short term and long term view. And it was! We made the decision to live in Airbnb’s throughout our time in Perth for a few reasons, several of which were beyond our control. Moving abroad without a new home to go to sounds terrifying.
