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
Be prepared to be flexible, but also identify your dealbreakers. I rarely accept a last-minute request because I donโt want to be rushed or have to change my plans to get the cabin ready. But I constantly observe how my guests use our cabin and tailor it to their interests. I am regularly updating photos if I move furniture or change bed coverings. I listen to my guests suggestions and decide how to incorporate them for future visits.
@Lauralie: I live in Murphy, North Carolina in the USA in a beautiful mountain cabin. Located in the Appalachian Mountains at the foothills of the Smoky Mountains. My late husband and I retired and moved from Florida to our cabin 5 years ago. Since his passing I decided to keep it as an investment property and private vacation home.
My question is, although Iโve done a lot of work on my listing, itโs not ready yet. Can someone confirm itโs not posted please?
Hi @Lauralie0
welcome to the community. ๐
I love mountains as well. Have you ever been to the Italian mountains, The Dolomites?
In your profile I can see that you still appear as guests, so I think your listing is not yet posted on Airbnb. Have you changed the listing status to publish it live?

Hi Bhumika,
This is Tush and I am also from Gujarat. Used to serve as a professor and now managing educational institution here in Edmonton for last a few years. Traveling, meeting new people, exploring world culture, watching movies, reading, and playing music are some of the hobbies I have cultivated.
I would like to learn from everyone's experiences while managing my air bnb property.
Thanks again
Tush

๐ง๐ท๐ฌ๐ง Hello, I am Karina, a Brazilian living in the UK. I started as an Airbnb host this past March. The apartment is located in Sรฃo Paulo, Brazil, just a 10-minute walk from the tube station. Itโs been a rewarding journey - I became a Superhost in 4 months, even while managing the apartment from abroad. I just joined the community, and I appreciate the opportunity.
Hi @Karina983
Welcome to the community ๐

Hi Iโm Maggie. Iโm in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, and I am brand new to hosting. We are doing 30-day minimums to comply with NYC law. We look forward to meeting some great guests! Bay Ridge is a great community in Brooklyn. There are tons of restaurants and other businesses. It is easy to get to other parts of New York City by subway, express bus, or ferry. I work in Manhattan and use all of those modes of transportation and also a bike. My husband and I love skiing, camping, hiking, and other outdoor activities. We are newly empty nesters. We need the company of Airbnb guests!
