Hello everyone! ๐
Welcome to the Community Center! ๐ I'm @Elisa , one of the Community Managers for our English Community Center along with my lovely team members @Quincy @Paula @Rebecca @Bhumika @Alex @Emilie 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 7+ 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.
@Alex : I'm originally from Spain ๐ช๐ธ, but my passion for traveling made me move to Toronto๐จ๐ฆ this year to explore the culture and add another unforgettable experience to my journey โ๏ธ. I'm also passionate about all kinds of sports โฝ๏ธ (especially football, in which I played at a semi-professional level) and love to discover new dishes everywhere I go. ๐ฅ
@Emilie : I was born in France ๐ซ๐ท, raised in French Polynesia ๐บ and Morocco ๐ฒ๐ฆ, and have settled in the UK for 14 years now! On evenings and weekends, you will find me spending time with my dog, working on a jigsaw, or trying my hand at some new cuisine. ๐ฒ
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 regards๐ป,
Elisa

Hi! Iโm Jenny, just started hosting in October of 2024 with my husband! We have a cottage on a small lake located in Pennsylvania (Lake Winola). Itโs right outside of Scranton, PA ๐
Hi @Jenny2119 ๐,
Congratulations on this new beginning, and welcome to the Community Center! ๐
How is the booking season going for you?
How did you get the idea of starting an Airbnb?
Warm regards ๐ป,

Hi! Itโs actually going really well! Since our house is located on a lake, I really did not anticipate any reservations until the spring. But weโre currently hosting our 6th reservation right now!
We bought the house because I grew up in the area and I currently live near Buffalo, NY. We visit a lot, but thought why not make some extra money and try out hosting ๐

Hi there, my home town is in NE Ohio but we recently purchased our retirement home in Byrdstown, Tn. We have travelled and stayed at a lot of Airbnbโs and decided to put this second home on the program. While we arenโt new to the program we are new to the hosting side. We are excited to share with others what we call our little slice of serenity until the time comes to relocate. I have always loved hosting in my own home and feel this is an extension of that love. I joined this community to gain knowledge and tips to help me be a great host for my guest.
Hi @Sherry-M1 ๐,
Thank you so much for your introduction, and welcome to the Community Center!
All the best to your current project! ๐
In which countries have you traveled so far?
Warm regards, ๐ป

Hi to everyone, I am Michael From Egypt Cairo that where I am mainly from and where I am hosting, but at the moment I live in Italy on the hills of "val-tidone". I have been hosting in Cairo from four years, but since I moved to Italy where I don't have a suitable place for hosting so I decided to start co-hosting. and I just created my co-hot profile so, wish me luck!
