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

Hello everyone! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Welcome to the Community Center! ๐Ÿ‘‹  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 ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฑ I have been on the Community Center for 7+ 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. 

@Alex : I'm originally from Spain ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ธ, but my passion for traveling made me move to Toronto๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ this year to explore the culture and add another unforgettable experience to my journey โœˆ๏ธ. I'm also passionate about all kinds of sports โšฝ๏ธ (especially football, in which I played at a semi-professional level) and love to discover new dishes everywhere I go. ๐Ÿฅ˜

 

@Emilie : I was born in France ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท, raised in French Polynesia ๐ŸŒบ and Morocco ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฆ, 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. ๐Ÿฒ

 

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 regards๐ŸŒป,

Elisa

Hello,

 

I am Tionge from Zambia (Home of the mighty Victoria Falls). I currently live about 10 minutes away from the Tranquil Kafue River. Thank you for the warm welcome to the community. I came to Airbnb to connect with others while leasing my space and possibly building a passive income stream. I am here to contribute and learn how others host on Airbnb.

Montclair, NJ

Hi - I'm Jodi and I'm a new Airbnb host. My husband and I purchased a cute cabin in Stratton Vermont a couple of months ago and have already had a few successful Airbnb guests since the beginning of the year. The skiing in Vermont has been amazing this winter!! Our home is perfectly situated less than 10 minutes from the mountain and is a perfect home base for a ski trip and all year round too. We're looking forward to joining and learning from this welcoming host community 

Hi @Jodi557 ๐Ÿ˜Š

Welcome to the community center, and thank you for sharing this with us!

 

Do you have a picture of your cabin? It would be great to see it here. ๐Ÿ˜

 

Is there anything specific you'd like to learn from the community?

 

Warm regards ๐ŸŒป,

Brenda1727
Level 1
Rio Medina, TX

Hello,

My name is Brenda! I live in Rio Medina, Tx... I have a guest house on my property that has been rented for 10 years, she moved out a year ago so we decided it would be more profitable to remodel, furnish and Airbnb it instead of renting full-time again! I have had it listed over a month now and have not had any luck on this site ๐Ÿ˜ž How do I get started on this? I am so excited to get started!!

Hi @Brenda1727 ๐Ÿ˜Š

Welcome to the community!

 

What a great idea! ๐Ÿ˜ Did you remodel it yourself, or did you ask for help?


To get better help from our host community, I recommend requesting a listing critique. This will help you understand why you're not receiving bookings.

 

If you're interested, just check out this article โ€Œ๐Ÿ‘‰โ€Œ How to ask for listing critique on the Community Center. 

Warm regards โ€Œ๐ŸŒปโ€Œ,
