17 Of The Best Airbnb Online Experiences You Can Do Right Now (2024)

Table of Contents
1. Luca and Lorenzo will walk you through everyone's favorite food: pasta. With their guidance (and recipes passed down from their Nonnas), you're basically guaranteed to become an expert at this famous Italian dish. 2. ~Visit~ a Barcelona workshop and design your own espadrilles. You'll first learn the history of this iconic shoe before choosing your size, laces, threads, and type of stitching — not only will you see the shoes being made, but the final product will also be shipped to your home at no extra cost! 3. Write the next summer hit (take THAT, Harry Styles) with professional songwriter, Anne Buckle. You'll be coached through cowriting an original tune *and* help figure out a guitar, ukulele, or piano melody. 4. Join @DragTaste for a cabaret-style digital co*cktail class! What classic recipe is on the menu? Portuguese sangria, which you'll learn how to make from scratch. 5. Tour an Australian farm to meet some very special animals (see below for major cuteness). You'll play a game of farm trivia and learn a ton of fun facts about each animal you virtually encounter! 6. Cook a delicious Kenyan meal with Josephine! Between byrian with kachumbari or curry with ugali, you'll make an authentic, mouthwatering meal you'll be proud to have mastered. 7. Uluç Ülgen typically hosts Turkish coffee fortune readings from his East Village apartment. But now, you can have your coffee grinds read without having to schlep to NYC — just sit back, sip on some caffeine, and Uluç will interpret your fortune via Zoom. 8. Understand the magic of movies with Adam DeCoster! This four-time Emmy-nominated Foley artist will demonstrate how sound effects are made in the studio *and* show you how Foley is added to a scene. 9. Pretend you're in Barcelona (*ahem* Barth-elona) by whipping up a delicious, authentic paella. Helina will walk you through every step, ensuring your meal tastes as delicious as it would at her own family restaurant. 10. After the 1986 nuclear disaster at Chernobyl, many dogs were left behind. Join radiation specialist Lucas Hixson to learn about the Dogs of Chernobyl* program before virtually visiting the Unit 4 reactor. 11. Bust a move to your favorite K-pop songs! You'll learn choreography to the likes of BTS and Blackpink (each time slot is dedicated to a different band), but becoming a dancing queen = guaranteed. 12. It's about time you became a ~vino~ expert. This course will school you on everything you need to know: how wine is made, the difference between red and white, how to pair wine with food, and what to look for when buying wine. 13. Play a historical game of "True vs. False" with everyone's favorite host, Socrates. You'll hear a ton of pretty bizarre stories about ancient Greece, with your job being to discern fact from fiction. 14. Pretend you're a Cirque du Soleil cast member (*pulse begins to quicken*). You'll be guided through a 30-minute workout inspired by the warm-up done by the circus acrobats before they perform! 15. What could be better than authentic Masala Chai (Indian tea) and Pakoras (Indian fritters)? Jd has been running food tours and cooking classes in Delhi for the past five years — so not only will you perfect the above recipes, but you'll also learn about the history of tea in India. 16. Coffee culture in Vietnam? 'Tis strong, pun intended. Learn all about its history (including how to brew your own Vietnamese coffee at home) with Lê, a Hanoi resident. 17. Sign up for a private astrology and natal chart reading to better understand your Zodiac sign. This reading explores how the stars and planets influence your personality, *plus* you'll end the course with a digital copy of your natal chart (which you'll want to frame and hang).
