About the host

Hosted by Petra or David Rael

Host profile image
David and Petra are both locals to Taos. They owned a business in Taos "Dave's Custom Cycles", for over 30 years and have since closed the business. David is semi-retired, he still teaches Mathematics at the local University and Petra works with the El Prado Water and Sanitation District. Both have been and continue to be active in the Taos and surrounding communities.

Why they chose this property

Peralta Lane originally was owned by David's Grandpa and over the years he gave parts away to his children. This particular Casita sits on its own fenced property, so it is secluded yet has an open field in the back where you can see the occasional horse, cow, cat lazily eat, hunt or what not.
