New to the Community Center? Introduce yourself here โ๐
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 @Holly855!
Welcome to the Community. That is such a great idea! I'm sure it's a really attractive spot for guests. When did you started this project of building the Hollyberry House? Where did you get the inspiration from? โจ
Best,
Alex

@Alex Hello! Thanks for asking! I used to walk past this abandoned railroad cottage while walking the dogs, and funnily enough, I fell in love with the place. When I bought it, the place was luckily not heritage-listed. Even though people tried to get me to tear it down, I loved it back to life and wanted to create a space that reflected loving something back to life and making it better than before. This also mirrored my health journey, so that's when Hollyberry House became a place to take care of yourself. Unplug, restore, and reset in a local place instead of driving or flying to a wellness retreat. Also, the property had a transportable house out the back, so it was sold, and the Studio was built.
Hey, Alex, I was born in Hamilton, Ontario so very close to Toronto, eh? At the BnB, I also offer Canadian-style (thick pancakes). All you can eat, of course. Australians can only stomach a two stack.

The story is beautiful, @Holly855! I'm so happy you were able to achieve your goal of creating your space. I'm sure it's a really special place for guests. ๐ค
We are really close, yeah! Do you have any more recommendations? Those all-you-can-eat pancakes are calling me. ๐

Hi Everyone,
I am A.J, my wife, Mirlene and I are hosting our Condo in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, USA. We started hosting about a week and a half ago or maybe two. We have been preparing our condo for the past year so we can start hosting on Airbnb. It has certainly been a journey, but thus far it seems to be a positive one. We definitely welcome any critique or suggestion for improvement on our listing. Looking forward to get to know you all especially if you are hosting in the Myrtle Beach area.

Hi @Savory-Homes0 ๐,
Thank you for sharing this here, and welcome to the community!
Did you have to do a lot of work before hosting?
Would you like support from other hosts and suggestions for improvement?
If so, I recommend asking for a listing critique by clicking here ๐ How to ask for listing critique on the Community Center.

Hi Team!
My name is Carly. I am a host for 2 homes in Prescott, AZ. I have been in luxury cosmetics regional for 10 years before entering the hosting space.
On evenings and weekends, you will find me hiking with my partner, Braden, enjoying the AZ weather at a farmers market or traveling to new places we have never been.

Hi @Carly284 ๐,
Welcome to the community center!
Your background is so interesting! ๐
What inspired the shift from luxury cosmetics to the hosting space?
Do you handle everything yourself at your properties, or do you have help?
Warm regards ๐ป,

Hi,I'm Charit, Hosting Villa for Surf Weligama. Situated in down south of Sri Lanka. Weligama is well known for its scenic natural bay and Surfing. Its quite challenging to start a business here but hope it will get better and better. So I'm happy to join with Airbnb community to explore and share ideas. Also i would like to invite newly joining Sri Lankan host to have a community to be a part of this international platform. Thanks.

Hi @Charit127 ๐,
Welcome to the community center, itโs great to have you here!
Why do you think itโs challenging to start a business there?
If youโd like to connect with hosts from your area, I recommend posting in the community.
๐ by starting a new conversation here.

I am Gopinath, an Indian, settled down in Coimbatore, in the state of Tamilnadu. I am new to Airbnb. I have a house in Kozhikode, in the state of Kerala. I seldom go there and stay; hence thought of hosting through Airbnb.
