I think you're looking for r/travel

Do you think we should share the secret website that has all of the inventory at half price?

I keep it to smaller stuff. A pepper grinder, a few spices, knife, peeler, and grater. I almost always buy a frying pan and/or cookie sheet, but leave bulky things like that behind. It's not just the cost of the bag, but lugging it all over that bothers me.

I recommend trying a coliving space.

Since when are those cheaper than just renting an apartment on Airbnb?

If you have 2 free days per each 10 days, the answer is to book your stay for a lot longer than 10 nights in order to have more off days to explore.

Santiago, Valparaiso, Mendoza, Buenos Aires, and Montevideo for the first half.

Yeah, who likes an educated populace? Much better to be around a bunch of dumb dumbs.

especially for a property that isn’t marked as “usually booked!”

That's just a marketing gimmick that hosts pay for. It has nothing to do with the actual number of nights booked. I've seen it plenty of times on brand new listings where no one has ever stayed.

It's a huge plus for me. I love not owning a car so much.

When I travel I have to be around the poors, don't make me do the same on the internet.

Open up a Chase United card. Get 50-60,000 miles after 3 months. Then open a Citi American card for another 50-60,000 miles after 3 months. Now you can fly across an ocean for free about 4 times. Barclays had an American card as well. If you use Southwest or Alaskan, those cards exist too. Check out a site like Doctor of Credit for a whole list.

As long as you pay your balance in full every month and cancel when the annual fee comes due, you can amass a ton of free miles without it costing you a dime. For most nomads, those are way more valuable than some cash back.
