Five-star experience
Disrupted hosts an Airbnb Experience and discovers a whole other side of the sharing economy, including an obsession with star ratings
LAST Saturday evening, Gardens by the Bay was a hive of activity. It was the final weekend of 2017, and park-goers - tourists, mostly - looked relaxed and happy just lolling about and taking in the cool night air and brilliant Supertrees. I, meanwhile, was breaking out (in) a sweat.
On the one hand, I was literally running, as part of an organised urban run that began at the Gardens.
On the other hand, I was feeling the nerves, for I was co-leading the run - an Airbnb Experiences activity that my good friend and I had created - for the very first time.
