San Francisco, Calif. - Airbnb, the marketplace for travelers in need of a home away from home, has created “moments of welcome” around San Francisco as part of its grand sponsorship (for the second year) of the city’s Pride festivities this coming weekend. As part of the initiative, Airbnb has created a mobile pop-up “Welcome Wagon” (pictured above) that will travel through the city’s various neighborhoods encouraging visitors to try their hands at some DIY activities as well as a community art installation.
