About the host
Hosted by Christina Alfonso
Austin native for over 34 years. I wasn't born in Austin (Colorado Springs actually) but I got here as soon as I could (age 2).
Super chill-laid back, creative creator - lover of all things beautiful.
I love authentic, brilliant, considerate, heavily passion-ed food, ideas and people. And of course, I love animals, too. Dogs especially.
I'm a proud first generation American.
My father is from Cienfuegos, Cuba and showed me the beautiful Caribbean ocean surrounding his colorful country.
My mother is from Vientiane, Laos (family from Hanoi, Vietnam) and taught me how to be resourceful and creative in the kitchen.
Inside my home, you'll notice one of a kind pieces & furniture cohesively put together, collaborating my mother & father's cultures with some of my favorite artifacts and decor brought back from both countries - along with Thailand.
I've resided on the east side of Austin since 2007 and never want to leave! I've been hanging out in the Holly Street neighborhood since I was 5, attending Cristo Rey Catholic Church, with my family physician directly next door to the church. I've really watched the city drastically transform over the last 3 decades.
There's always something interestingly new to discover right outside your door. Just step out and experience it for yourself!

Why they chose this property
My vacation rental home is nestled inside of one of Austin's most uniquely beautiful and historical neighborhoods, Holly & Cesar Chavez near Lady Bird Lake.
There is so much to see, taste, cultivate, love, and never forget - during your stay in one of the best cities in the whole wide world.
YES! I know that's saying A LOT. And I stand behind my words, 100%.
Austin is simply Ahhmazing and you'll surely get a true taste of it's authentic home-grown culture while staying at my east side home.
I am very open minded. I love to get wrapped up and lost in deep thoughts and endless conversations. I respect & accept everyone for who they are/want to be in this short amount of time we get to spend on this planet.
LET'S LIVE IT UP, BEAUTIFUL !
