About the host
Hosted by Marla K Bechtel
Lover of life, travel, adventure and meeting new people from around the world.
I am a very easy going, outgoing and relaxed person…I consider myself to be a very positive person and love surrounding myself with beautiful things…I love my garden and take pride in my numerous rose bushes and fruit trees…Spring is my favorite time of year when everything in the garden is new and in bloom.
I grew up in San Diego…but left at 20 to live and work in London.
I ended up traveling all over Europe and was in London for about 4 years.
I then moved to Vancouver, Canada to attend film school…and moved to LA…I have been here for almost 20 years and I love it. I know lots of hidden treasures and fun places to go off the beaten path here in LA and Pasadena and would love to share my city knowledge with people visiting from out of town. I know what it’s like to take a trip and be away from the creature comforts of home…and I would really like my home to provide you all the comforts and luxury of being in a true home so it's makes your trip all that much more fun and relaxing.
I love the outdoors and love hiking, sailing, stand up paddle most of all, I am avid bicyclist. I did a 100 mile ride to raise money for the Leukemia/Lymphoma Foundation a few years ago and I got hooked!
There's a great ride from my house down to The Rose then it's 3.2 miles around the of fun! There's also many wonderful hiking trails here in the San Gabriel Mountains to explore..
I work in film editing and have worked for numerous popular tv series like Ray Donovan, Preacher, Desperate Housewives, Bates Motel, etc… I am also a entrepreneur and am working on an app - hope to have it in the App Store soon…Very Exciting!!
I love meeting new people from all over the world and look forward to a wonderful experience on airbnb.
Carpe Diem!

Why they chose this property
My home is a perfect example of what makes Pasadena such a unique and charming town. The neighborhood is quiet and serene with wonderful mountain views and yet close to everything that Pasadena and the surrounding areas has to offer.
What makes this property unique
Old Town Pasadena and The Rose Bowl are just a few minutes away... Just minutes to the 210 Fwy entrance. Los Angeles is 10 miles south on the 110 Freeway, the beaches are 25 miles south and west. 20 minutes from the Burbank Airport.
Close to CalTech (2 miles!) and the famous Huntington Gardens, 15 minutes from Santa Anita racetrack and Los Angeles Arboretum. We are only 5 miles from the Huntington Hospital and the HRC Clinic. 12 minutes to JPL (Jet Propulsion Laboratory) and just 7 miles to Art Center College of Design. The Pasadena City Hall and Convention Center is also only 4 miles away....
There is also a Los Angeles Metro station less than half a mile away (the Allen stop on the Gold Line)within walking distance.
