Hospitality service
|
Hospitality Services are networks of people who trade accommodation. Usually, no money is involved. This gives travellers the chance to stay with locals instead of in hotels or hostels, getting a better perspective on the culture they visit and saving money. Most networks were founded to enable people traveling to gather more intercultural understanding and to foster peace in the long run.
