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 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 🇳🇱 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! 🙌 

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

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.

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. 

[Nela346]

Hello! I am a new host in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and a big fan of the AirBNB 💌.

I have recently retired from tge UN service, and starting a new chapter in my life, consulting, mentoring and hosting 🙂 (and who knows what more...).

My expertise is in the field of communication and I am passionate about promoting and monetizing human potential, i.e. I love to help people (especially women) monetize their knowledge and expertise.

I see a great need to connect with hosts in my city and in our beautiful country so that we can help each other offer better hosting and experiences.

I am now exploring how to do it within a local AirBNB community. Great to be here.
