New to the Community Center? Introduce yourself here ‌👇

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 @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 🇳🇱 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! 🙌 

@Elisa : I was born in Italy 🇮🇹 and as a lover of unique experiences—from exploring the streets of Rome🇮🇹 , Paris 🇫🇷, and Toronto 🇨🇦 to appreciating timeless art and cuisine—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

Greetings.  My name is Tamara and I live in Naples. Florida.  I put my little house on Air B and B after I renovated it.  We had a terrible Hurricane a few years ago and it severely damaged this house.  I lovingly restored it from the ground up and now rent it seasonally to visitors who wish to come enjoy our little town.

Hello Everyone,

I am Ajit from Euless, Texas,originally from Nepal. I started to get curious about hosting once I had stayed at several airbnb on our trips and loved the concept. I love providing a clean and comfortable space for people looking for a place to stay besides traditional hotels/motels. I love to travel and try new foods.

Hi @Bhumika and community,

 

I am new to hosting. I am from the Dominican Republic and now I live in NY, although I was raised in Puerto Rico. I decided to start hosting because I love a challenge and I am confident this extra income will help me start traveling. I am excited to start this new journey. Best of luck to everyone!!

Hola, and thank you for the warm welcome. I'm from Roatan, Bay Islands of Honduras, and we recently built a beautiful Airbnb in our eyes 😃

 

The 2bd2b is located a 15-minute walk from the beach, a great rental opportunity! my only concern is that it is next to my home, where I live with my husband and 7 y,o. boy + our pets (a dog and a bird)

 

The question is, should I share with the guests that I'm the owner or just say that we manage the cottage?

 

Looking forward to read from you soon 😃

Michelle.
