About the host
Hosted by Yolanda Lonsford
I began hosting in Galveston in 2008, coinciding with the year Hurricane Ike wrought devastation upon the island. The sense of loss and shock at the destruction was indescribable. Thanks to the efforts of countless volunteers nationwide, we were able to rebuild the island. My affection for this enchanting island and its beaches grew from this experience. Our latest project is this suite, and it fills us with pride. After two years of remodeling, we're thrilled to share it with others. Our other properties have also seen great success, and we always look forward to welcoming back returning guests. Some I know only by name and have never met, yet I feel a strong connection to them and their families. Hosting families who cherish our homes as their own brings us immense joy.
We are immensely thankful for the blessing of abundance and the opportunity to share our spaces with others.
The gratification that comes from hosting strangers is profound, particularly when they leave notes expressing how much they enjoyed their stay.
