RT @IBBtravel: Q5: What’s the most unique accommodation you’ve ever stayed at? What made it so special? #InspireToWander

A6: No not yet. Not sure I find them overly appealing either since I hate being cold! #inspiretowander

replying to @RoadTripsCoffee @RoadTripsCoffee Sooo...I take it you left the following morning and didn't stay another night? #InspireToWander

replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO Yes! Wine's fault LOL. But I think it will be good for me to learn how to save some money when travelling, that's a smart move. :) #InspireToWander

replying to @RoadTripsCoffee @RoadTripsCoffee @JustinLaurenXO That is so true. When it’s not their problem, they dont care. So frustrating. #InspireToWander

A5 @inspiretowander @JustinLaurenXO #InspireToWander one of the most unique accommodation offers was in this polar bear proof unit. That’s me peeking out the window staring at the stars & Northern Lights @TheTorngats basecamp @ParksCanadaNL #TorngatMountainsNationalPark


replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO A6: Does Canada count as a giant igloo? #InspireToWander


replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO Q4 #InspiretoWander A great way to save money is with a credit card with points. Some hotels will take a AAA discount. If you talk to someone on the phone instead of booking online, sometimes you can get a better deal.

@JustinLaurenXO @obligatraveler Points? 😄
#InspireToWander

replying to @OrganicRoadMap @OrganicRoadMap @JustinLaurenXO Gross, but good tip! #inspiretowander

replying to @NYCapricorn @NYCapricorn @IBBtravel Yeah, it all depends! I imagine that a homestay would be similar to a B&B where you would chat with the home owner. Advantage being that they could show you around town or help you with your trip. But totally understand if you want more privacy! #InspireToWander

replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO @SterlingTravelr Yeah. I was getting ready for a paranormal story. 😄👻 #InspireToWander

replying to @Guy_Theriault @Guy_Theriault @inspiretowander @JustinLaurenXO @TheTorngats @ParksCanadaNL Whoaaa so cool! What a neat experience. #InspireToWander

replying to @LilyAnchorsAway @LilyAnchorsAway Hahhahhah! No that does not count! You have to stay overnight in an igloo inside the giant igloo. Like a snow globe with an igloo inside LOL #InspireToWander

replying to @RoadTripsCoffee @RoadTripsCoffee I cannot endure snoring. You have just reminded me of when I called the night manager in Edinburgh because the guy in the next room was snoring so loudly! Rather than wake him up, they moved me. #InspireToWander

replying to @IBBtravel @IBBtravel @inspiretowander A3: hopefully this doesn’t double post. An @Airbnb in Paris, where the curtains fell while I was showering and the patrons at the Louvre got more than they paid for! Then bed bugs! It was the Airbnb from hell! #inspiretowander

replying to @featherandwind @featherandwind @JustinLaurenXO I've heard of these! They've always struck me as claustrophobic. Is it as tight as it seems? #InspireToWander

replying to @featherandwind @featherandwind @JustinLaurenXO I've heard about these. But I didn't think they existed outside of Japan? #InspireToWander

RT @IBBtravel: Q2: What are the three main things you look for when choosing your accommodation? #InspireToWander

replying to @StuartMHurlbut @JustinLaurenXO #inspiretowander A5 Another unique place was an old Madrassa in Khiva, Uzbekistan. The building behind the blue tiled tower in this picture is the Madrassa which has been turned into a hotel which I stayed in.


Now that's an amazing accommodation (and photo)! #InspireToWander https://t.co/1SYGU2NHfF

replying to @aok_NW @aok_NW Now an underwater hotel would be cool! #InspiretoWander 🐟🐠🐙

replying to @RoadTripsCoffee @RoadTripsCoffee @featherandwind That's so cool you stayed in one. I think one is coming to NYC, too? #InspireToWander

replying to @IBBtravel @IBBtravel A2 #InspireToWander 1. Quality 2. Location 3. Amenities

replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO That's it exactly. And I've never gone back to that hostel. But the interesting part was that all three guys in that room were kicked out the same day I left. Hmmmmm I think someone might've listened to me talking over breakfast. #InspireToWander

So cool! Have you ever stayed in a pod / capsule hotel? #InspireToWander https://t.co/6CYAovkumU

replying to @IBBtravel @IBBtravel @inspiretowander A5: A ranch in Montana, I can’t even remember the name because it was about 13 years ago, but it was gorgeous! My best friend got married there, the morning of her wedding we did a trail ride! #InspireToWander

@JustinLaurenXO A7 - points, points annnnd, in case you were unsure, more points please! Though there are some good credit cards that give a free night each year which can have good value.

replying to @Abfabtravels @Abfabtravels Wow. So he was snoring so loudly that he woke you up, but YOU are the one who had to change rooms? Sigh. #InspireToWander

replying to @theanchoredblog @theanchoredblog @aok_NW Whoa underwater hotel! That's sooo cool! I'd stay there. #InspireToWander

replying to @Jetsettingbees @Jetsettingbees @inspiretowander @Airbnb Oh gosh that's AWFUL! I had bed bugs when I moved into my first place in Toronto when I went off to school. I had no idea it was bed bugs until 3 months later when my doctor almost put me on steroids & I finally caught one. EWW! #InspireToWander

replying to @Jetsettingbees @Jetsettingbees @IBBtravel @inspiretowander @Airbnb That sounds like a total nightmare! #InspireToWander

A5 @inspiretowander @JustinLaurenXO #InspireToWander I always love staying in @ParksCanada #oTENTiks throughout their amazing network of parks and historic sites!


replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO A7: Simply being loyal to a brand helps. When staying in hotels, we look for @HiltonHotels or Hilton partners. I try to use @Expedia as well. We’ve scored many free nights that way! #InspireToWander

replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO @featherandwind Meh. It would figure NYC would get one first. Lemme know when one comes to a national park haha. #InspireToWander

replying to @IBBtravel @IBBtravel @inspiretowander A1: Normally Airbnb because we have a family of 5. #InspireToWander

replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO A6 I didn't sleep in one but I did visit the Ice Hotel in Quebec the first day it was open this year! #InspireToWander


replying to @SterlingTravelr @SterlingTravelr @obligatraveler It's not points! But if we host a points chat we will definitely ask that you guest host :) #InspireToWander

replying to @KaraDiDomizio @KaraDiDomizio I have to say I love Booking's genius perks though. They've saved me some $$ and been really handy too! #InspireToWander

A4- It's not the best idea, but you can catch some good deals by waiting until the last minute to book a room. Especially if there is an event nearby and they jack the prices way up. When they realize no one is going to book them, prices drop. #InspireToWander #travelingsession
