About the host

Hi, we are originally from Asia and have lived in US for over 2 decades. Our love for travel has taken us to many countries around the world and apart from booking from travel packages, we have always used Airbnb for our stay. Having had such an amazing experience with Airbnb, we decided to host as well.
We love to try foods from various cultures and also enjoy watching movies. Meeting new people from around the world is something we really treasure and enjoy doing. We hope you will have a great stay at our place during your visit.
