But that's not backpacking. It's a journey without those limits to allow you freedom to change your mind.

I didn't do it much but when I backpacked I tended to avoid public transport (hitch hiking) and would often just sleep in a city park or railway station. Different times now but it was part of the journey

She strikes me as someone who says controversial things to remain relevant.

Reminds me of one we had over here, I intentionally don't remember her name but like Piers Morgan but less relevant.

Always chuckle at went on TV saying she hates people calling their children after places.... and her daughter was called India.

HomeExchange looks good and is European.

It naturally lacks the depth of listings that Airbnb does but will grow if people use them

It's a brisk walking pace nothing more. Regardless, that pace over 2hrs is commendable

Pedantic I know but UK is in Europe, I know you mean EU but don't give us any ideas! :)

Particularly as I thought they don't enlist people from Moscow and St Petersburg. Only those from more remote locations that they care less about

If they really want to boil our piss, put "English (American)" as the only option. Or or, a little American flag next to "English". Oo, I'm engaging myself right now.

All relative, in a city (albeit not that desirable) the housing stock will be smaller so I suspect the agent means relative to other houses.

I knew I'd be a summer casual rider so bought a 2nd hand road bike for €300 18yrs back.

Still have it, can't justify getting a new one as it just.. works

Thanks for posting, this is really useful as I'm in the UK so it presents lots of local options for me.
