Yeah. i think i have hosted about maybe 60 people? so krakow is saturated. there is no more room for people. so we re not keeping them for very long. we re not pushing them away but we re trying to get them on to a train station so we can bring more people in. when i say 60 people, that means overnight. i get to meet them. i have breakfast with them. i sometimes buy them flights or train tickets if they re trying to go far away. and then there is more space so we can take another family in. so you we ve met over instagram. you sent me a message on instagram and you sent me pictures of a family currently in your giant air bnb. explain how big an air bnb you have and how many people you have there? a few nights ago i was matched with a family of 13 children, two babies under 6
She s pretty stoic and decided that s her home. she is not going to leave. so when war broke out, i mean, i was probably crying for the first 24 hours, and i mean, when somebody is in harm s way like that, there is nothing more helpless than feeling like you re distant and you can t do anything about it. and then that s the moment i decided to book a flate and fly to krakow and see what difference i could make for at least the people coming through here as well. i think, i mean, i find it so amazing, and so wonderful. not only your ongoing concern for the surrogate but so many people feel helpless and want to do something. and you were seeing on it television and in barcelona and decided, i m going to krakow in
Krakow and needed somebody to get them there. and immediately, i started shuttling people back and forth. i had an air bnb and i just told the people i was working with, when i finish may shift, you know, match me up with a family who needs a place and we ll figure it out from there. and how many families, how many people now have you helped out? i was working six-hour shifts in the morning and then more in the afternoon, driving people. so i kept all my parking payment tickets as a way of figuring out what my pace was. and i think i was driving like eight or nine families a day. and then i ve been here ten days. i keep getting bigger air bnbs so i can host more people.
