The Strangest Things Left Behind by Airbnb Guests
From living animals to dubious objects, Airbnb guests leave many things behind.
We can all be a little forgetful once it's time to pack a bag, regardless of whether we're leaving for a trip or returning home. Sometimes, we leave our phone charger at home, while other times, we forget it at our accommodation of choice.
But some Airbnb guests don't only leave behind phone chargers and the same old unpaired sock that, somehow, always finds its way out of your luggage. Reportedly, they leave behind so much more. No, I'm not talking about just clothes. I'm talking about clothes, medical devices, sex toys, and even living animals.
On both Airbnb forums and Reddit, there are many threads (including this one, this one, and this one) where hosts share the strangest, most unique things that guests leave behind, and we rounded up the most outrageous ones for you to see. Mind you, there is no judgment here—instead, these are a few amusing finds to remind you to check your Airbnb before leaving the next time you're on a trip.
