This episode is brought to you in partnership with Airbnb. This past summer, I took my family to Athens, and it was truly an incredible trip. We ate amazing food, we saw the Parthenon and the Agora, and all the incredible things that you can see in one of the most amazing cities in the world. And one of the things that made it special was the home we booked on Airbnb. We could see the Parthenon from our bedrooms. It even had a small jacuzzi on the roof, and we were walking distance from everything you'd wanna see. We had such an amazing time cooking and just spending time together as a family in that home on Airbnb. If you've ever had a chance to visit Athens, I cannot recommend it enough. That's the thing about Airbnb. You're not just getting a place to sleep, you're getting a home base that fits your trip. And while you're away, your own home doesn't have to sit empty. Hosting on Airbnb can help you earn extra money on your schedule with full control. Your home might be worth more than you think. Find out how much at airbnb.ca/host.
