Today I learned how to clean spaces and set up a room for Aribnb.
Starting next Monday, I will be cleaning spaces and organizing things for the current apartment that I am living in to help out my landlord’s business.
What I am excited about this opportunity is that I get to learn the most essential things besides owning an apartment that one needs to master to run a room-service or airbnb business.
The other two thing I am excited about are 1) I get to consistently spend time thinking as I clean spaces which will allow me to better understand what to prioritize in life and how to be more efficient with my time to achieve goals and 2) I get to sing as I do this job which helps me with the show pursuit that I have.
Once I learn this skill, I will feel confident that I can run my own small Airbnb business with any places and I am going to assume that learning the skills necessary here will take me about two months.
As I am learning this, I could also potentially make time to learn some Spanish since I am communicating with many of Spanish-speaking people so that could be something I could be doing and also I could get back to reading the FT but I don’t currently know how to allocate time for that one which can help me learn about business in general (?).
I should talk about hospitality more.
Well, today my manager showed me things I should be doing to set up the room and one thing that stood out to me was I guess leaving some teas filled up in this little box in the room next to the coffee machine and a boiling pot which I thought was a pleasant detail.
A person comes in and then discovers they can enjoy some teas.
That’s quite nice.
Anyways,
for now, I am exciting to learn some new skills here and then keep refining my routines to have a better understanding of how to combine show, hospitality & design together to make something truly authentic to myself.
