New to the Community Center? Introduce yourself here (Updated)

[#1]

Hello everyone,

A warm welcome to the Community Center. 

This discussion is for introducing yourself to your fellow Airbnb Community members, as well as welcoming and saying hello to newcomers in return. Thanks to all of you who have already introduced yourself and contributed in our previous thread, here.  

I'm Lizzie and I am the Community Manager here, along with my teammate @Quincy. I have been managing the Airbnb Community Center since it officially opened in November 2015. It is fantastic to speak with amazing community members here. 

To kickstart this topic, I would like to share a few things about myself:

1. I love to travel, hot or cold it doesn't matter - I'm ready with my sun lotion or a raincoat! 
2. I play several instruments, but my main one is the flute. I always enjoy a good conversation about music. 
3. Lastly, over the past year I have become very interested in all things eco/sustainablilty related.

How about you? Any interesting facts or hobbies?

I'm looking forward to hearing from you. 

Lizzie

Good luck to you Baris, I loved Turkey and found a kind of informal air bnb in 2006 in Turkey when my taxi driver let me stay in the lounge at his place in Bursa! Very kind and I hope life has gone well for him.

Hi gang, I'm new and about to start reading other posts here. I've had 10 bookings so far, and resolved to only have one guest from now on, because I live here and two was overwhelming. So, I find, is having people work from 'home' if I am also home!

Found this page because I was hunting around to find out what happens if you give someone a good review, but still say you don't want them back again when air bnb asks that question. Will it affect whether they can find my place when they try to book again? I've had the problem others have written about where it is just a personality issue and no reflection on their ability to get on with other hosts.

Hi. I'm new to this conversation. I just want to say hello. I'm not sure what else to say, but hope everyone is having a Happy New Year so far.

Hello All,

Im still somewhat new to the community, but I were wondering how many of you might be interested in a company that helped Airbnb owners leverage their listings to earn additional income.  I am working on a startup whose goal is to do just that.  If you are interested, please comment below and I will reach out ((:

Were currently looking for ten hosts for our beta group.

Cheers!!
Nick
