About the host
Hosted by Anca
Born, raised and educated in beautiful Romania, I am happy to welcome you into our lovely guest suites and hope you will feel at home and build beautiful memories.
My hosting style is heavily influenced by the hospitality that Romanian people are well known for all over Europe as well as by my love for travel, art, waking up with a cup of coffee or tea and looking forward to enjoying life's simple pleasures.
My husband Bob, is a native San Diegan with great insight into the region and the beautiful places to explore. He too welcomes you.
We live in the gorgeous San Diego and I look forward to having you enjoy this wonderful city to its fullest! :)
