Just Rented My Fourth Kyiv Apartment On Airbandb

Told owner to use the money and stay safe. The owner of #3 invited us to come once they have won the war. That's the plan I replied.

One small way to help.

If you use Air b and b just rent an apartment for a couple days. Help out our brothers and sisters.

I don't understand why this is better than just sending a check. Even Paypal is accepting donations without the fee.
