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,
Bhumika
Hi everyone! This is Hannah and Ryan! We just launched our co-hosting company Bulldog Properties located on the southwest side of Florida. We have just recently launched our first property in Cape Coral, FL and taking bookings starting in June! We are excited to embark on this journey ahead of us and happy to connect with other like minded people in the community. **

Hello there @Hannah-And-Ryan0 welcome to the CC! ๐ exciting times ahead! ๐
Wishing you the best of luck with your journey!
Hi and welcome
Hola mundo ๐
My name is Ignacio, and was born in Jujuy Argentina, currently living in Buenos Aires ๐ง๐ฆ๐ท
I am a Software Engineer and I live within my wife and our two children.
I lived in Italy ๐ฎ๐น for 6 years playing volleyball ๐ and that triggered in me a passion for learning new cultures, meeting new people, learning new languages ๐
+ a huge respect and curiosity for what is different.
Joining the community to become a better host a better guest
Cheers ๐
Greetings from the UK! ๐ฌ๐ง @Nacho148
I love your enthusiasm! How did you find living in Italy? I hope you share your experiences with the wider community ๐
Hi, Enit and Robert from Miami, FL, we have an Airbnb in Ellijay, GA. Thank you for adding us.
Welcome to the CC! ๐Glad to have you here @Enit257
How is your hosting journey going so far? ๐
Hi Sophia, it was going a lot better when we first started but we have not had much luck getting our place rented this year, trying to figure out what we can do to get it rented. We became superhosts and that was right when they removed the ability to search by super host properties and we haven't had much luck since. Please let us know if you have any suggestions. Thanks
Hi @Enit257,
A great suggestion for new Hosts is to initiate a ๐critique my listing' thread, where our seasoned Hosts can provide insights on improvements to enhance your chances of receiving more bookings.
I hope these tips are helpful.
Not even sure what this is...lol.
But, as we expand into the Co-host arena, I've been looking more at what AIRBNB has to offer.
My name is Chad Osborn and my wife, Mona, and I host two sites at our home/property here in N. Idaho, USA! We have a beautiful 5 acre wooded lot that we are trying to maximize on its potential since we are retired...which means a fixed income. AIRBNB gives us that extra cash to travel!
We are High School sweethearts and married in 1985. We have two grown children and 4 grandchildren (one of which is now 18...ugh!)
Peace
Chad
Welcome, I was laid off from my 6 figure job in Dec 2022- forced retirement. Airbnb has allowed me to only work part time now.
Hello @Chad570, welcome to the Airbnb Community Center.
I just wanted to drop you a note to offer some clarity about our forum. The Community Center is a great place where you can mingle with other Hosts and ask for advice. You can also swap stories, share tips, and get the lowdown from the Airbnb team.
Here are some ๐tips to start posting in the Community Center. Or maybe you are ready to start a ๐new conversation here?
I hope this helps.
Hello! I am Jerry from Fort Myers, FL. We have lived here over 5 years and have been doing airbnb for 7. Fort Myers and Fort Myers Beach are totally different vibes. Fort Myers downtown is a small brick road town while the beach is 30 minutes away and has the total vacation feel. Love it here!
Hello @Jerry610, welcome to the Airbnb Community Center and thank you for sharing your presentation with us ๐
How has your experience with Airbnb been so far? Please feel free to start a ๐New conversation here to share ideas, tips, or ask questions to our experienced Hosts.
All the best,
