About the host
Hosted by Anna E Zerbian
Welcome to Peaceful Forest Retreat!
My name is Teresa, and I'm originally from Mexico. I have proudly called the United States home for more than 35 years, where my husband and I have had the joy of raising our wonderful children and building a life centered on faith, family, and serving others.
As a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), I have dedicated my career to caring for seniors and helping them enjoy the highest quality of life possible. Serving others has always been one of my greatest passions, and that same spirit of hospitality is what inspired me to become a host.
I love creating a place where families, friends, military visitors, and travelers can relax, reconnect, and feel truly at home. Whether you're visiting Tacoma for work, vacation, or a special occasion, my hope is that your stay at Peaceful Forest Retreat is comfortable, peaceful, and filled with wonderful memories.
