All the cool kids in Australia have rented their apartments out for the holidays, Airbnb-style.

The accommodation disruptor has been making waves in the local market, with 50,000 listings currently live in Australia as the countdown for the party season begins. It has been an interesting few years for Airbnb in Australia, with two million guests sleeping in someone else's bed since it launched in 2012.

The disrupted market is pretty evident in these cool GIFs, with the lights representing the amount of properties up for rent. The place to go in Australia for a home away from home? Parramatta, apparently. Yep, the smaller city on the outskirts of Sydney is the fastest growing Australian destination.

Take a look at the domination in a few short years. Australia, you've been disrupted.
