You might be surprized how many people are "stuck" around the world right now, and are staying in Air B N B's waiting for all the closures to end.
For example Argentina has cancelled ALL plane flights (in/out and domestic) until September.. and unless you have signed authority you can't even drive town to town. So anyone that was travelling there is now stuck, and are essentially forced to rent a place and stay put.
A few friends are caught there, and many others in similar situations around the world.
