Doing this is the difference between a failed month abroad and one that thrives with kids 👇
1️⃣ Research the neighborhoods. We use ChatGPT to compare different areas, understand what each neighborhood is best for, how walkable it is, and what daily life looks like there.
2️⃣ Build out our own map in Google Maps with all the places we care about. Cafes, grocery stores, restaurants, parks, playgrounds, activities, gyms, pharmacies, coworking spots, etc. This helps us identify clusters and narrow down which neighborhoods make the most sense for our day-to-day life
3️⃣ Go to Airbnb and apply the filters we want for our stay. Once we’ve already chosen the neighborhoods, we compare listings ONLY inside those areas instead of randomly searching across the city.
4️⃣ Review the listing closely, read host reviews carefully, and message the host before booking.
