We make it easy for you to find accommodation to suit your lifestyle.

There are hundreds of tags to find properties or to find the right host. Also, there are over 100 groups to connect like-minded people. We are also using Facebook to help you find friends and recommended hosts. In short, we've made holiday planning fun and easy.

What's more, you can add friends and favourites to your interactive map to help you see the world differently!

"I am the world and the world is me."

- to paraphrase Michael Jackson's 'Man in the Mirror'.

As such I've decided to give 10% of profits to charity. The charity that I have chosen is the Helen Keller International because even a little money will make a world of difference to someone.

What's more, that charity has an A+ rating from the American Institute of Philanthropy which means that they use their funds hugely efficiently on the good causes they were meant for.

Lastly, I'd like to apologise to my Dad, who died of cancer, for not investing in a cancer fund, but for now, my tiny contribution is more effectually placed here.
