Pro: Money Saver
Flysister was free (as of 2020, you have to pay US 30 a month for your membership). For a budget traveler like myself, free accommodation is really helpful. Of course, as a traveler, it is always considerate if you can get a small Thank You Gift for your host, or grab some groceries/a drink if your stay is long.
Con: Don’t expect a 5 star hotel!
Flysister is free to register and free membership for girls. But Flysister it is free to travel and to meet with locals. Free may mean sleeping in tents, on dirty beds, on smelly couches and so on. Most of the places I’ve stayed at have been absolutely amazing—big beds, clean sheets, sometimes even a full room! But don’t expect to find yourself to be at a 5-star hotel, and never treat hosts as if they are there to serve you. Of course, Flysister is not for everyone and it’s completely understandable to forgo this route altogether. For those that try or have tried, do let me know how was your Flysister experience!
