About the host
Hosted by Paulette
I am a retired teacher and many years ago I bought this century house - a set of flats in downtown Halifax Nova Scotia. My 3 children were attending 3 different schools as was I, so this house was handy to everything close by, and accessible by foot. We moved into the main-floor flat, renovated the basement and for over 20 years rented the upstairs 2nd and 3rd floor furnished flat on an annual basis.
I joined VRBO beginning in the summer of 2015 and operated on a short-term basis during the spring and summer season - May to August, as a Premier Host, until Covid shut everything down in 2020. I am optimistically looking forward to hosting again this year with fingers crossed :) This property location continues to be supreme as the heart and soul of city central - it has it all, and is easily accessible to historic or green space venues. The ocean air is at your doorstep . . . on a misty summer night you can hear the fog horn . . .
