About the host
Hosted by Alyssa
I'm a Data Analyst working in a marketing agency, living and working between Waterloo and Toronto. When I'm not crunching numbers, I have traveled to over 12 countries and can't wait to explore even more! Cooking and baking are my creative outlets, and I enjoy experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen. I also have a green thumb and spend my weekends gardening. I'm excited to meet new people and share experiences through Vrbo.

Our house is just 12 minutes walk to Zehrs, one of the biggest supermarkets in the area, and a 5-minute drive or 15 minute bus ride to T&T supermarket. Many guests love the peaceful residential area - close to the universities but away from the noise of student hubs.
