Hello everyone! 😊

Welcome to the Community Center! 👋  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 🇳🇱 I have been on the Community Center for 6+ years, and have been an Airbnb Host myself. I love cycling🚲, playing football⚽, and travelling🌏 . I love how dynamic and diverse the Community Center is as we meet Hosts from all around the globe. 

@Bhumika :  🌍 I was born in Gujarat, India 🇮🇳 , and shifted to Toronto, Canada 🇨🇦 last year! 📷 I recently realized my love for photography and aesthetics. I love to capture mundane life and candid pictures. 🌆 When I'm not working, you'll find me binge-watching thriller movies or exploring history.

@Paula : I am from Colombia 🇨🇴 and currently living in British Columbia, Canada 🇨🇦. I have a passion for Latin American culture (I love to dance 💃) . I've had the opportunity to visit around 20 countries 🌎 and plan to visit many more. In my free time, I enjoy outdoor activities, especially mountain biking 🚲 and hiking 🏔.

@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 🌿 and like to minimise my impact on the planet 🌎 as well as volunteering in my local community.  I love sea swimming 🌊 yoga on the beach 🧘‍ and I'm a children's yoga instructor too! 🙌 

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

Me gusta mucho hacer esto y estare dedicada a hacerlo a tiempo completo lo.mejor que pueda. Me encanta bailar salsa y no lo hago tan mal 🤒

[Paula]

Hola @Leticia458, bienvenida a nuestra comunidad y que gusto tenerte aquí 😊

Como lo mencionas, Monterrey es una ciudad encantadora, tuve que visitarla varias veces en los últimos años por temas laborales y de los lugares que más disfrute fue el parque fundidora, vi unos hermosos amaneceres desde allí.

Te invito a que continuemos nuestra conversación en la comunidad de habla hispana, donde tenemos una gran cantidad de increíbles anfitriones mexicanos: https://community.withairbnb.com/t5/Centro-de-la-Comunidad-SP/ct-p/centro-de-la-comunidad

You've come to the right place as we've got some great conversations going on:

 
✨ Ask about your listing - You can ask other Hosts to critique your listing, you could be pleasantly surprised at what other people see!

✨ Advice on your space - This is great for general questions about your space specifically, for example, the amenities that you have at the property to what types of sheets that you use.

 Greetings All from here on the CT shoreline USA. I am Brett Avelin and co-host of our sanctuary we call Heartland in GUILFORD Ct. we hand renovated, lifted the ceiling and created a studio apartment designed as a refuge from the daily grind. Looking to provide ecstatic breathwork and meditation experiences as soon as Air Bnb opens up that section again. Happy to be here and happy hosting everyone. 
Brett

[Rebecca]

Hey @Brett490,

That sounds right up my street! I love exploring breathwork and meditation techniques and it varies so much from teacher to teacher and experience to experience. 

Stick around; we'll be one of the first places to share with you when Experiences open up again! 

[Brett490]

Sounds good Rebecca.  Yes there is so much variation, perhaps as much as there are people!  What kind of experiences/techniques have drawn you in breathwork and mediation?
