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?

Hi @John8351 👋
Congratulations and a huge welcome to the Community Center! It's great to have you here with us.
It's wonderful to hear you've got your first guests! How has it been so far? 😊
Hello,
I’m from Germany, and as a military spouse, we move to new places all over the world every few years. I am passionate about nature and minimizing our environmental footprint. I appreciate simple living and love traveling. I’ve been part of the Airbnb community for over 10 years, but I’m new to the hosting side. I’m currently a co-host for a beautiful place on the northern Atlantic coast of Galicia. It’s a pleasure meeting you all.
Hi @Anja1671 👋
Another military spouse here! It's wonderful to have you join us on the Community Center as a Host!
How are you finding being a Co-Host? 😊
Hello I am from the mountains of Kentucky. There is nature and beauty all around. I have been an Airbnb host for 5 years now. Most people who come and stay love it here. From time to time I do have people to stay that doesn't like that there isn't the conveniences of living in a city. I am a substitute teacher and that makes hosting easier because I am able to do all my cleaning myself. I actually host two Airbnb s. I love spending time with my family and friends. My happy place is being on the lawn mower with 80's music blasting in my ears.
Hey @Amy3274 👋
It's great to hear that you've been hosting on Airbnb for 5 years in the beautiful mountains of Kentucky! How wonderful that you're able to look after your Airbnbs around your job.
What brings you to the Community Center?
I was looking for information on how to handle if as a host anyone had needed to cancel a guest s reservation. Once I did the cancellation I was asking if I had handled it the correct way.
Hi. My name is Kenneth ** but most of my friends call me Ken. Am from Mumbai. I think it almost 8 years since I’ve been hosting. My home is quite close to the airports, has easy access to the arterial highways. I live alone and host guests in, obviously, the guest room😁. I love to go biking (motorcycle), social dancing (jive, salsa etc), watch movie AND eat. So I know some of the best places to enjoy food and night life in Mumbai, without tearing a hole in your pocket. If you ever come to Mumbai… mi casa, sou casa.

Congratulations and a huge welcome to the Community Center! It's great to have you here with us. Mumbai sounds wonderful! What brings you to the Community?
Hi,
I am Simon from Scotland. I started hosting in May 2024. Much is going well.
I had poor experience of support on a technical matter (map legends) at the outset but I manged to get it solved.
Now I want to understand how technical escalation is managed. There is a clear bug in the way airbnb is passing dates to Google Calendar using iCal. I see others have posted.
How do we get attention to this soluble issue?
