Business Development Manager - Sweden & Norway

About Bob W

I'm Bob W, your friend in town. I take the guesswork out of travel, blending the best of both worlds: hotel-grade consistency, local character, and a few surprises only locals would know. Every apartment is fully carbon offset and set up in Europe's most interesting neighbourhoods, so you feel at home-just with better coffee and smarter tech. I'm building a new kind of stay: five-star comfort, local flair, and always a step ahead on sustainability. All you have to do is show up. I'll handle the rest.
