About the host
Hosted by Karen Hsu
Originally from New Jersey, we’ve fallen in love with the San Diego lifestyle! When we’re not tending to our garden, you’ll usually find us playing with our two sweet doggies.
We’ve called this property home since 2020. Not long after we moved in, my dad unexpectedly passed away. One of his greatest wishes was for me to have a place of my own and an income property where he could stay for long visits and I could manage while raising a family. Hosting allows us to honor his memory, keep his dream alive, and share our home with others in a meaningful way.

Why they chose this property
I love this neighborhood because it's quiet, but very close to all major attractions. Everyone is very friendly around this area and we have several stores within a 10 minute drive.
What makes this property unique
We built this ADU with the idea that one day we might live in it ourselves, or have family move in. Because of that, we put a lot of thought into every detail—both the functionality of the space and the comfort of our guests. After spending seven years in a small NYC studio apartment, I learned the value of multi-functional spaces and flexible layouts. That experience inspired me to design a home that feels open, adaptable, and welcoming to different groups with different needs.
