About the host

Hosted by Barbara E

Host profile image
Hello! My name is Barbara, and my little guy is Dante. We are a wildly happy little solo duo. We obsess over all things space, science, and AI. We also love treasure hunting at thrift stores and antique stores, baking, and kitties! I am from NY, but lived for ten years in Seattle, seven in Spain, two in Denver, and have finally joined my family here in Raleigh (and we're here to stay)!

With this home, I am dedicated to making a good life for my son and to show him the value of hard work mixed with love, kindness, and hospitality. We are honored to share it and hope that it touches our guests' hearts the same way it does ours.
