Bob is the mythical globetrotter who calls nowhere home but is at ease anywhere. After travelling around the world from Chicago to Kathmandu and everywhere in between, Bob has developed refined taste when it comes to accommodation. His holy grail are places that blend the consistent quality of a hotel with the authentic flair and affordability of a host’s home. The problem is that these types of places are almost impossible to find. That’s why he decided to create his own category of exceptionally cool short-stay accommodation that combine the best of both worlds. When you sleep with Bob, you always know what to expect: an awesome location in a handpicked neighbourhood, interiors created by local designers, and a commitment to sustainability. Although Bob is usually away trekking up a glacier or hitchhiking across a continent, his team of professional hospitality superheroes is here for you day and night to make sure you have a 5-star stay. Welcome to Bob’s world!

Have you heard about Turku in Finland? It’s a city with history, but it’s got a cool modern vibe. In the middle of Turku's City Centre, you'll find the buzzing Market Square. There's a vibrant market, plenty of cafes and restaurants, and it's surrounded by all the big shopping spots—malls, department stores, you name it. It's a major stop for public transport, making it easy to see the rest of the city, and it’s where all things business happens. But wait, it's not all hustle and bustle; there are cool art displays, pop-up shops, and even chill spots for the little ones. Plus, they're big on showing off local furniture and art. If you take a walk by the Aura River, you’ll see traditional medieval buildings like the Turku Cathedral and Castle. Get this – Turku is actually known as Finland’s Food Capital. It’s all about the sea and fresh local produce, perfect for grabbing a bite or a beer. And in the summer, it’s awesome! The river boats become these cozy little pubs, and there are outdoor restaurants and music festivals everywhere. Trust me, it’s the kind of spot where you just want to wander around and soak up the atmosphere. Definitely a place you’d love to check out.
