2025 Host Advisory Board

[Jue0]

Excited at this announcement and immensely honored to be a part 👉Airbnb introduces the 2025 Host Advisory Board

Some background and my role at the Board. Truly Phenomenal. With a heart of gratitude.❤️

Appointed to the board for the years 2023, 2024, and 2025.

As I enter my final year, I feel immensely honored to represent my community, my country Kenya, and our continent Africa.

Highlights include meeting and sharing feedback with remarkable colleagues, Airbnb senior staff, policymakers, and product teams and more.

A defining moment was being a Torchbearer at the Paris 2024 Olympics and sharing a stage with the co-founder and CEO Brian Chesky at 888 Brennan in San Francisco, where I engaged in a Q&A with him on hosting and policy, on behalf of and with fellow Advisors.

I extend my deepest gratitude to my fellow board members and extend a hearty welcome and gratitude to both our incoming and outgoing colleagues. This has been a truly exceptional journey. Forever friendship and bonds made.

Our Guests 🏡: A Special Shoutout 📣 it’s been a great and most amazing experience meeting and hosting wonderful people and families from all over the world! We’ve laughed, loved, cried and shared the joy and magic of this phenomenal journey together. Thank you our gracious guests! This would not be possible without you.

As a Superhost, Ambassador and Community Leader, I and our amazing team are dedicated to providing an exceptional guest experience and fostering meaningful relationships. The Ultimate Guest Experience, “UnReasonable Hospitality”.  My family, My Tribe, My Fellow Community Leaders, My Community, My Co-host Meikan Mwenda where would I be without you? Your consistent support, cheerleading, encouragement, sticking it out, these past ten years has been remarkable, totally humbled! It’s a profound and heartfelt THANK YOU 💐

I look forward to a fruitful year serving on the Airbnb Host Advisory Board in 2025. #AirbnbHost #Airbnb
