My family consists of me and my 2 super friendly cats, Raj and Esther. We're a very welcoming, quiet trio. I speak English with bits of other languages but love to delve deep into other cultures through cooking. The available room (which is my studio/work when not rented out) is furnished with a single bed, closet, table, linens supplied and Wifi. Kitchen and bathroom is shared.

About the Area
My bohemian 2 bedroom apartment is located on the 4th floor of a century old walk up in the west end of downtown Parkdale in the hamlet of Little Tibet on the edge of Roncesvalles Village. Urban with a hint of small town vibe. The apartment itself has waterfront/beach access and trails within a 5 minute walk. Public transit in various directions is at my door. 20-30 minute transit ride to the city centre core with bike rentals nearby. Limited street parking which I can assist maneuvering if you have a car. Loads of shops, veggie/fruit markets, trendy cafes, galleries and a vast array of restaurants ie. Tibetan (best momsos), Japanese, pizza, east & West Indian, Lebanese, Thai, Mexican and at my doorstep is an amazing, popular breakfast spot.

How do I book?
Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.
When do I pay?
Once a host confirms they're available, you can go ahead and pay the 15% booking fee (maximum of 250 $£€ for longer term bookings) and a 25% deposit using a choice of payments: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Maestro, Laser, JCB & PayPal. The deposit is collected in advance on behalf of the host to protect against no show or late cancellations (within 7 days of arrival). You then pay your host the balance due on arrival. The 25% deposit payment is made to the host 2 business days after your scheduled arrival date. This deposit payment will only be refunded if you cancel the booking at least 7 full days prior to arrival.
When can I share my contact details?
Host and Guest email address, phone number and home address will be exchanged in a confirmation email sent to both immediately after a booking is completed. It's against our policy for Guests and Hosts to exchange direct contact details via our messaging system.
