It’s easy for your mind to wander when you’re sitting at your desk browsing the internet or commuting every day, isn’t it? Go somewhere far away where you feel like you can escape reality and completely fall in love with travel. It's an easy daydream, but just the thought of paying for it is laughable. Well, guys, get it – you might be able to afford it after all, as Airbnb is launching an all-inclusive round-the-world trip for £4,042 per person.
say what? Yes, folks, this book is inspired by a particularly famous book, Around the World in Eighty Days , by the French novelist Jules Verne. So you guessed it, the trip will last 80 days. During these 80 days, travelers can have almost everything. Yes, their accommodation, their tours, and all the food and wine made the vacation delicious and relaxing.
Wow, an experience of a lifetime for just over £4,000? I mean, who needs to save for a mortgage anyway?
On this trip, you will escape to Ethiopia, see the mysterious scenery of Egypt, go island hopping in Thailand, go to Australia to drink the best coffee in the world, go to South America to see ancient temples, and even go to the United States to do your best Cowboy impression

On their website, the service that changed the face of travel describes this unique opportunity. Get ready to drool, guys, it's so bright in here.
"On a 12-week trip around the globe, you'll explore the cultures and traditions of medieval Europe, the former Soviet Union, East Africa, the Middle East, North and South Asia, the South Pacific, the Americas, and Northern Europe. Yes, you read that right."
So it's all about celebrating Airbnb Adventures, a new service that gives people the chance to find authentic experiences off the traditional tourist route. These affordable and unique travel opportunities further solidify Airbnb’s dominance in global travel. Of course, there are some problems with this 80-day trip, the first and most prominent being that there is very limited space to experience.
“To mark the launch of Airbnb Adventures, a limited number of guests will have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to travel around the world in 80 days,” Airbnb wrote. “Inspired by Jules Verne’s classic work from nearly 150 years ago, this adventure will Taking visitors across six continents, 18 countries, two oceans, five oceans and eight modes of transportation, including, of course, hot air ballooning.”
This trip was specially planned in advance and will take place from September 1 to November 19, 2019, starting and ending in London.

One of the most amazing things about this trip is that it was a socially impactful experience. This means 100% of the fees you pay go to the Malala Fund. The Malala Fund was co-founded by student and Nobel laureate Malala Yousafzai and her father Ziauddin. The Malala Fund’s goal is to provide every girl with “12 years of free, safe, quality education.”
So, like I said, spots are limited and only available on certain dates. June 20 was the first day spots were made available, and apparently the two allocated spots were allotted quickly. The next round of ticket sales will begin on June 26th at 2pm sharp, and again at the same time in July. So make sure to mark your calendars in advance, not just for ticket sales but for potentially the trip of a lifetime.
