Protip from my side if you're crashing Airbnbs full-time: bring a knife sharpener. I've yet to see the Airbnb that actually had a usable set of knives. Typically all dishes are whatever cheapest you can get at IKEA.

If feasible I'd rather bring a roll of my own knives.

  You can bring a knife sharpener through airports.

    You can bring knives through airports too, just not hand luggage

    Hence "feasible". I can also bring a knife roll through airports, as long as it's checked in. And if I'm on the road full-time I imagine I've got something else that I couldn't carry on anyway. Or I might consider the extra hassle of checking luggage in to be worth having my knives on me. I try to travel carry-on only as much as I can and I could definitely see myself preferring to bring my knives.

  It is important to familiarize yourself with local laws regarding knife possession. Certain jurisdictions, such as Japan, may consider knives over a specific length as weapons, even if they are ordinary kitchen knives, when carried in public. Additionally, some types of knives, including dagger knives, are prohibited regardless of their size. If you are found carrying such knives, you could potentially get into legal trouble. However, in certain circumstances, such as when transporting a knife from one location to another, you may be released without prosecution, though it can still be a hassle to go through the process.

This is great advice. Power strips and a HomePod Mini are other high-ROI items.

  Does the homepod mini do anything differently when you're in an airbnb vs how you would normally use it at home? Like does it become a WAP or something?

You can actually use the bottom of a ceramic mug as a whetstone to sharpen knives if you're dedicated enough!
