Hello everyone! ๐
Welcome to the Community Center! ๐ I'm @Bhumika , one of the Community Managers for our English Community Center along with my lovely team members @Quincy @Paula and @Rebecca and we are thrilled to have you join us.
Let's kickstart this thread with a little about us Community Managers:

@Bhumika : ๐ I was born in Gujarat, India ๐ฎ๐ณ , and shifted to Toronto, Canada ๐จ๐ฆ last year! ๐ท I recently realized my love for photography and aesthetics. I love to capture mundane life and candid pictures. ๐ When I'm not working, you'll find me binge-watching thriller movies or exploring history.
@Paula : I am from Colombia ๐จ๐ด and currently living in British Columbia, Canada ๐จ๐ฆ. I have a passion for Latin American culture (I love to dance ๐) .

@Rebecca : I'm from Cardiff in Wales originally but being a military child and a veterans spouse, I've travelled and lived in a lot of different places in the UK and Europe.

Hello everyone, I'm from Croatia, I've been renting on Airbnb for over 10 years. Now it is my only source of income, before I retire. My children are still studying, so it is also the only source of income for my entire family. Sincerely and with a lot of love, we devote ourselves to our relationship with each guest and try to ensure that our Villa by the sea offers everything that the Mediterranean can offer - and that is waking up to the sound of waves and seagulls and a beautiful sunset before evening. Soon it will be time for my travels (by car or Harley) and I hope that I will use Airbnb more as a guest.
Hello @Goran149 ๐
It's wonderful to hear about your hosting journey in Croatia for over 10 years. It sounds like you have created a special experience for your guests with your Villa by the sea.
I'd love to hear more about your hosting experiences and any plans you have for using Airbnb as a guest.
Safe and exciting travels ahead! ๐โจ
Hi Bhumika,
I'm Zied from Tunisia, but I currently live in Doha, Qatar.
I bought a brand-new 2-bedroom condo overlooking a pool in one of the most affluent sea and hotel resorts in South Hammamet. One of the bedrooms is actually a master bedroom. It's well-equipped.
The condo is within walking distance from one of the most beautiful golden sandy beaches. It's also very near a commercial street where you can enjoy local as well as international meals. You can also find kiosks, supermarkets and coffee shops.
Two of the most famous nightclubs are also down the same street for those who like live music.
I'm new to airbnb and I had my first booking from 8-14 August. I have provided most of the amenities. I hope I'll have a very positive review that will encourage other guests to book.
Thanks Bhumika for getting in touch with me.
Kind regards,
Ziad
Hi @Zied16 , Your listing sounds like a fantastic place to stay ๐ Many congratulations on the first booking! Are you feeling excited for the first booking or are slightly nervous? ๐ How are you preparing for your first guests?
Have you prepared a guidebook for your guests for them locate the nearby kiosks,supermarkets, restaurants and nightclubs?
