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:
@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
Thank you!
Itโs slow, and my first hosting was a trial for the books, ๐ . I felt obligated to accommodate bad behaviour to stay in business. Are guests of guests allowed in a property clearly listed for two? All in all, great experience that ended well, though I wish Iโd been firmer.
For example, I encourage no shoes inside my rooms and offer indoor slippers/sandals to guests. I wasnโt successful at enforcing this rule.
How would you advise me (in general) for future repeats? And are there any tips for getting frequent bookings, ๐ with fewer reviews and hosting?
Medaase ๐๐พ.

Hi Rebecca!
This is Nicole from Uyuni, Bolivia. I listed my space (apartment) a month ago and has received amazing reviews so far!
I have some questions and if someone is from Bolivia we can help each other if possible!
Many greetings from the largest Salt Flat in the world!
Hi @Nicole-Jhoselin0 ๐
It's great to hear that you've received amazing reviews for your apartment in Uyuni. Congratulations on your successful start as a host! It's always helpful to connect with other hosts in the same region.
As this is a global community, it might be hard to find a Host from a specific area. There are Local Host Clubs though - so it might be worth popping there. In the meantime, we're here to help answer any questions you might have.
