Sweden puts entire country up on Airbnb

Sweden has listed its entire countryside on Airbnb, as a place anyone can hike, camp or even pick mushrooms and berries, for free.

Not that this is a special offer available only to Airbnb users. Sweden, as well as the other Nordic countries of Denmark, Finland and Norway, has since the middle ages had rules allowing the public to freely roam the countryside.

It’s called "allemansratten" or "everyman’s right" and allows everyone access to the great outdoors. It applies to both public and private lands, though with a few caveats.
