Have you ever gained a family member after a stay at an Airbnb?
A host in Alaska is giving us all the feels right now after she gave her guest a review which has gone viral for being so wholesome.
Kathleen, from Fairbanks, Alaska, said visitor Jo-Anna was "like family” and she wished she was her daughter.
She went on to say: “I hope I see her again! I told her I want an invitation to her wedding should she marry but I do not know if there is a man her equal!!!”
Guest Jo-Anna told Euronews Travel she was "on a quick trip to Fairbanks and the North Pole - I was in the Christmas spirit. I stayed at Kathleen's B&B, and was unsure what to expect because I'd never stayed with a host before. But she was lovely, full of conversation, and cooked a great breakfast!"
She posted the review on Twitter after making such a great impression on her host following just a 36-hour stay at the Airbnb.
