About the host

Host profile image
Hi All!
I am a former military brat, who has been traveling, since a toddler. I have lived in various places across three continents. When I get the urge to move, I travel. Moving often as a kid has me wanting to pack up and go, quite often. I am a transplant to Birmingham and have grown to love the area. I love exploring new places, meeting new people and new experiences. My family has rented through this platform and others, for quite some years, now. I have managed rentals for over 15 years. I am excited to be on the hosting side of this platform.
