About the host
Your host
I'm originally from Phoenix, but Tucson is my adopted home town. My family and I lived here for 7 years before moving abroad for work. We come back most summers for the great weather :) and to reconnect with family, friends, and tacos.
Why they chose this property
The historic Blenman-Elm neighbor is a Tucson gem. There's a strong desert vibe, but you're also close to everything. My partner and I both received our graduate degrees from the University of Arizona and were able to bike to campus.
What makes this property unique
Our outdoor space really embodies the local desert. We have outside dining and seating and gas fire pit and grill. We've enjoyed some wonderful outdoor times with our parents, our friends, or just hanging out as family.
