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 @Rebecca and @Elisa and we are thrilled to have you join us.
Let's kickstart this thread with a little about us Community Managers:
@Quincy : I'm from the Netherlands ๐ณ๐ฑ I have been on the Community Center for 6+ years, and have been an Airbnb Host myself. I love cycling๐ฒ, playing footballโฝ, and travelling๐ . I love how dynamic and diverse the Community Center is as we meet Hosts from all around the globe.
@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) . I've had the opportunity to visit around 20 countries ๐ and plan to visit many more. In my free time, I enjoy outdoor activities, especially mountain biking ๐ฒ and hiking 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. I'm an environmentalist ๐ฟ and like to minimise my impact on the planet ๐ as well as volunteering in my local community. I love sea swimming ๐ yoga on the beach ๐งโ and I'm a children's yoga instructor too! ๐
@Elisa : I was born in Italy ๐ฎ๐น and as a lover of unique experiencesโfrom exploring the streets of Rome๐ฎ๐น , Paris ๐ซ๐ท, and Toronto ๐จ๐ฆ to appreciating timeless art and cuisineโI'm here to blend the old with the new.
Now it's your turn! Tell us a bit about yourself. Where are you from? And is there something special about the location of your accommodation that you'd like to share?
Looking forward to getting to know you all!
Warm regards,

Hello @Hamza210, welcome to our community,
A great way to start exploring our community is by using the search bar at the top with some keywords. This will bring up some conversations and previous great advice from our Hosts (You can also click on the image below ๐).
I am sharing here the ๐Resource Center link, where you can find extensive articles. This is an excellent resource to deepen your understanding of hosting.
My husband and I own a large lake home in Minnesota that we try to rent out year-round. We enjoy using it as our "cabin" mostly during the summer months but also in the dead of winter when the snow is fresh and the fireplace is burning so we block off some dates for ourselves. It's tough getting winter renters, not everyone is a fan of the cold.
Hello @Melissa2505, welcome to our community.
It would be amazing if you could share some pictures of the lake home. ๐

Hello everyone, Iโm Neal from Texas, USA. I am a super host for about a year now. I love meeting new people and discovering interesting things about the different guests l have encountered. Wonderful people all. I have been doing ABNB short term rentals, but recently my city sent me a violation stating l am in not the โentertainment districtโ which allows short term rentals. Now my only choice presently is to list for long term rentals of 30 or more days. We all know how difficult it is to book long term. Have any of you encountered this with your area and what suggestions do you have to see if l can overcome this city regulation.
Hello @Neal144, welcome to our community,
To gain more visibility in our community and gather excellent advice on STR, I suggest starting a ๐new conversation here.
All the best,
We have been super hosts for almost a year now. Unfortunately we recently received a violation from our city for STR because we are not in there โentertainment district โ which only allows STR within it. I have seen other pockets of STRโs nearby who are required to have a permit, but LTRโs are not. So now l am forced to go to LTR at a great loss of revenue. My guests spend good $$ in the entertainment district when they are here @and the entertainment district makes a lot of money. Any suggestions on what I may try to get the city to grant me a permit for a STR? I am within a mile or less of the entertainment district. Thanks ๐.

Hello everyone,
We are from Winter Haven, FL and just started hosting our first rental through airbnb! We are so excited to offer a luxury retreat that has some extra special features akin to those quirky love hotels you see all over the world these days. It's going to be an intimate retreat for our guests to reconnect, rejuvenate, and explore new experiences they've never been able to before.
