About the host

Hosted by Wendy

Host profile image
I was born and grew up in Taiwan, and came to the US at 21. I love America, and I love being a host. I retired from the IT field in Boston. I also have a counseling psychology Master's degree so technology and psychology are my passions. Hosting is an interesting job because I love to get to know people from other cultures and it fascinates me.

Why they chose this property

Central Square is an exciting area; there are two college campuses nearby ( MIT and Harvard), and shops and restaurants fill along the streets. There is no need to own a car for basic needs. Public transportation ( bus and subway ) takes you to Boston and other major towns nearby. A vibrant and safe city.

What makes this property unique

My home was renovated with my own touch and taste. I kept the old charm from the past and added the most modern convenience.
I made every bedroom a suite; all bedrooms have their own bathroom and marble floors, and all have a jetted bathtub for comfort.
I made the whole first floor with an open-concept design; it is a place for cooking, entertainment and relaxation place.

Three bedrooms are located on the 2nd and third floor. All bedrooms are situated away from each other for privacy.

My house is located on a quiet street with one-way traffic; there is very little traffic noise at night, so a good night's sleep is a blessing.
