New to the Community Center? Introduce yourself here โ€Œ๐Ÿ‘‡

Hello everyone! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Welcome to the Community Center! ๐Ÿ‘‹  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 ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฑ I have been on the Community Center for 6+ years, and have been an Airbnb Host myself. I love cycling๐Ÿšฒ, playing footballโšฝ, and travelling๐ŸŒ . I love how dynamic and diverse the Community Center is as we meet Hosts from all around the globe. 

@Bhumika ๐ŸŒ I was born in Gujarat, India ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ , and shifted to Toronto, Canada ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ last year! ๐Ÿ“ท I recently realized my love for photography and aesthetics. I love to capture mundane life and candid pictures. ๐ŸŒ† When I'm not working, you'll find me binge-watching thriller movies or exploring history.

@Paula : I am from Colombia ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ด and currently living in British Columbia, Canada ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ. I have a passion for Latin American culture (I love to dance ๐Ÿ’ƒ) . I've had the opportunity to visit around 20 countries ๐ŸŒŽ and plan to visit many more. In my free time, I enjoy outdoor activities, especially mountain biking ๐Ÿšฒ and hiking ๐Ÿ”.

@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 ๐ŸŒฟ and like to minimise my impact on the planet ๐ŸŒŽ as well as volunteering in my local community.  I love sea swimming ๐ŸŒŠ yoga on the beach ๐Ÿง˜โ€ and I'm a children's yoga instructor too! ๐Ÿ™Œ 

@Elisa : I was born in Italy ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น and as a lover of unique experiencesโ€”from exploring the streets of Rome๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น , Paris ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท, and Toronto ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ to appreciating timeless art and cuisineโ€”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

This is my first time in the Community Centre. I am excited to meet so many people from different walks of life. I was born in Morelos, Mexico and reside in Toronto, Canada.  Iโ€™m currently going back and forth between Mexico and Canada. I love traveling, eating and dancing salsa, morning yoga. Iโ€™d decided to host because Iโ€™d love people to explore and enjoy this paradise in Morelos.

Hello @Luz985,

 

Thank you very much for joining our community! Weโ€™re so glad to have you here. ๐Ÿ˜Š

 

Are you hosting in Mexico or Canada? What inspired you to join the hosting community?

 

If you find it helpful, we also have a Spanish Community Center where many hosts from Mexico share their hosting experiences.

 

Feel free to join us there!

 

Best regards,

Hello, Paula!

 

Thank you for your welcoming! That's very nice of you. ๐Ÿ™‚

 

Currently, I'm just hosting in Mexico. I decided to join this Community to exchange ideas with other hosts and to share my own experience.

 

I believe I'm already in the Spanish Community, as well.

 

Kind regards,

 

Luz

Greetings all - My name is Shannon Fuller and I'm originally from California but have lived in Raleigh, NC for the past 11 years. We have several rentals in the Raleigh-Durham area. Raleigh is a great place to visit because it's close to the mountains, beach, airport, city life, great food but still has a small town community feel. I'm new to STR so learning as I go.
