Hello everyone! 😊

Welcome to the Community Center! 👋  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 🇳🇱 I have been on the Community Center for 6+ years, and have been an Airbnb Host myself. I love cycling🚲, playing football⚽, and travelling🌏 . I love how dynamic and diverse the Community Center is as we meet Hosts from all around the globe. 

@Bhumika :  🌍 I was born in Gujarat, India 🇮🇳 , and shifted to Toronto, Canada 🇨🇦 last year! 📷 I recently realized my love for photography and aesthetics. I love to capture mundane life and candid pictures. 🌆 When I'm not working, you'll find me binge-watching thriller movies or exploring history.

@Paula : I am from Colombia 🇨🇴 and currently living in British Columbia, Canada 🇨🇦. I have a passion for Latin American culture (I love to dance 💃) . I've had the opportunity to visit around 20 countries 🌎 and plan to visit many more. In my free time, I enjoy outdoor activities, especially mountain biking 🚲 and hiking 🏔.

@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 🌿 and like to minimise my impact on the planet 🌎 as well as volunteering in my local community.  I love sea swimming 🌊 yoga on the beach 🧘‍ and I'm a children's yoga instructor too! 🙌 

@Elisa : I was born in Italy 🇮🇹 and as a lover of unique experiences—from exploring the streets of Rome🇮🇹 , Paris 🇫🇷, and Toronto 🇨🇦 to appreciating timeless art and cuisine—I'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

My name is Derrick, and I'm a new host for Airbnb. I'm from the United States and grew up in the Southeast. I love travel, fitness, and all things business!! The space I currently have listed is centrally located in Uptown Charlotte N.C. It is steps away from city parks, bike trails, restaurants, art, and entertainment. This space offers a first-class experience to uptown!! Looking forward to sharing this space with the world. 

[Bhumika]

Hi @Derrick180 , Welcome to the Community Center! Your listing in Uptown Charlotte sounds amazing! Seems like there are a lot of places nearby for guests to enjoy - city parks and nature! 

Since you've just started hosting, do you have any questions that you'd like to ask other Hosts by starting a new conversation?

Hi everyone, I'm Attila from Brasov Romania, it's a nice place here near to Draculas castle 🏰 I recommend to everyone to visit Transilvania 😊 

I joined Airb&b 1 month ago. 

Cheers

Hello @Attila82, How cool, Transylvania! This place has been on my bucket list for years! The landscapes look incredible there 😍. What is the best time of the year to visit? Would you like to share a picture of this wonderful place?

Additionally, how has your hosting journey been in this first month? As a new Host, you might have some questions or comments, so please feel free to start a new conversation here, asking any questions you have. I am sure our lovely hosts will be more than happy to share their opinions.

Regards,

[Attila82]

Hi Paula , thx. for asking, I think September or December is the best time to visit Brașov.
My hosting goes good, it's booked till November 😊

I don't know what exactly to ask I think I will  figure it out how to do it better. 

 we have a Brasov sign just like in Hollywood 🤭

Hello All,

This is Mica from Malaysia and I am new to hosting lovely guests from Airbnb. I love sharing stories about my hometown and I am a proud Penangite who welcomes guests from around the world to see the beauty of Penang like how I see it.

I want to learn more from experienced hosts about giving my guests the best hospitality experiences they could ever get.

Thank you.

[John8343]

Hi Bhumika, thank you for the welcome. 

I am John - host/co-host of a really nice condo in Kempton Park South Africa. Situated close to OR Tambo International Airport. A friend invested in the property and as I was available in the complex, ended up overseeing the BnB. I enjoy the challenges as well as the opportunities to make new friends.
