Hello

[Laurie853]

Hello, My name is Laurie Trotman. My husband and I have just completed putting together a new Airbnb room in Virginia, USA. We have stayed at an AirBnB many times throughout the United States, Portugal, Spain, and France. We look forward to this new adventure.

Thank you @Bhumika 

We started a list when we last stayed at an AirBnb listing all things that were important to us, so that we were sure to put them into our location. We have guests booked for this weekend, so we are looking forward to their comments on our space. 

Regards,

Laurie
