Airbnb in Tel Aviv: finding place amongst other people’s stuff
This article discusses the Airbnb phenomena and its position within the sharing economy. Through an autoethnographic lens, I examine my experience, of living in someone’s else’s home – in their stuff – and how I made it my own place. Place theory is used here to underpin the discussion of human experience when settling in a new city, a new home, and establishing routines and rituals. Finding place in Tel Aviv, Israel, emerged when the immediate surrounds of my short-term accommodation, the public spaces just beyond my building, and the people who filled the alley ways and local market, became familiar.
