About the host

Hosted by Jocelyn

Host profile image
Originally from Jackson MS, I also live in San Diego CA with my husband and two small children. We love to travel and equally love showing hospitality to others. Our dream (birthed from an amazing experience on our honeymoon) is to retire in a small island town and run a Bed and Breakfast there as a family.

Why they chose this property

The Kensington neighborhood is a hidden gem! One of my favorite places to live in SoCal. The people are neighborly, streets are peaceful, and locally owned cafes, restaurants and shops are all in walking distance!
