| finding a niche in a haystack Buscando una aguja en un pajar Explanation: Hi there, In some countries in Latin America, the translation for that phrase would be "buscando una aguja en un pajar", which basically stands for a situation in which you definitely are going to have a difficult time looking for something that is located among many stuff. However, this phrase is not necesarily employed in a positive way. So your choices are using this phrase or thinking about a totally different one. My recommendation is to use something like: "buscando en una selva de opciones para alojamiento" or something that references the wide variety of choices. Good luck! |
