Month of Celebration 2020

[Katie]

Hey everyone,

It’s coming up to that time of year again, where we hold our Month of Celebration here on the Community Center. 

For anyone who is new to the CC, we’ve been doing this since 2017, and it works a little bit like an advent calendar: each day throughout December, a different community member will start a new topic about something positive. We cover a huge range of things, both hosting and non-hosting related, from stories, to experiences, tips, milestones, traditions, fun facts - all sorts. 

It’s been a difficult year for everyone, so this would be a really nice way to keep a sense of positivity throughout the month, and end the year with something happy. 

Last year we had some fantastic topics, from a poem by @Inna22, to a topic on your most fun (or funny!) hosting experiences by @Laura2592, and a great insight into breakfast as a way to share cultural traditions with guests from @Miloud0.

We can’t do this without your input though, so if you’re keen to contribute then please reply to this thread and let us know which date (or dates) you would like to post a topic 😊

 

 

**Update: Extended Month of Celebration Posts**

As so many lovely new members were keen to take part this year, we have extended the Month of Celebration for the first few days of January - yay! 

 

 

Hopefully you’ll all enjoy getting involved, whether posting a topic, reading or commenting, and a gigantic THANK YOU to everyone taking part 💙

This really is what the Community is all about, and we will benefit from this daily dose of humour, positivity and experience-sharing now more than ever.

Katie, @Lizzie, @Liv, @Nick & @Quincy.

[Katie]

@Cathie19 you're a dream, can't wait to read it 💕

[Nutth0]

Hi @Katie and everyone, I will join to write on DAY 18 or can be DAY 17. Thanks 

[Katie]

Yay thanks @Nutth0, I've booked you in for the 18th of December 😊

[Nick]

I'll take the actual Christmas day, thank you very much @Katie 🙂 

[Katie]

It's all yours @Nick 🎄

[Jen-Marie0]

I am new to the community but would love to participate - I actually have some great stories about how we survived through the pandemic while opening a brand new business and how Airbnb has helped us stay afloat.

[Katie]

Great to hear that @Jen-Marie0, I'd love for you to do a topic on one of the days - sounds like you've got lots of insight to share 😊

Which date would you like to do yours? 

[Jen-Marie0]

Any date should work @Katie - let me know where you need me!

[Katie]

Lovely, thanks for being so flexible @Jen-Marie0 😁 How about the 7th?

[Veronica-Of-Excel-Proper0]

Hi @Katie , I'm happy to post on the 17th.

[Katie]

Fantastic @Veronica-Of-Excel-Proper0 - I've booked you in for that date 😊

Hi @Katie 

I haven’t forgotten about this. Will get back to you re the date once I have got my new laptop and set it up as I find it impossible to type anything of length on a phone or tablet without autocorrect turning it into a load of gobbledygook!

[Katie]

No worries @Huma0 I've still got you on my list to get a date in for 😁 Haha I know the feeling - I just upgraded my phone as it was getting to the point where it couldn't keep up with my typing, and autocorrect had a mind of its own! 📱

[Liv]

Hey @Katie, can you please book me in for the 8th? 👼

Thanks!
