It didn't sound crazy at the time. It sounded crazy at the time to investors - old, rich white guys (I'm generalizing, of course). These guys didn't need to or want to stay in an AirBnB, or at least didn't before it had already become commonplace.

Younger folks though, traveling on a budget, interested in meeting other people while away from home - it's a no brainer. We all stay on friends couches, in guest rooms, share cars.
