When I searched for an AirBnB in Dallas to stay at for a week, I was looking for 3 things: (a) a quiet and comfortable space, (b) proximity to a grocery store and nice restaurants, and (c) a friendly and responsive host who respected my space. My stay at Dia's place exceeded my expectations. Although the house is located roughly 1.5 blocks from a bustling area, it is pretty quiet. The walk to Trader Joe's, or a nice restaurant/lounge/bar takes just 2-3 minutes. The Lower Greenville area is one of the coolest areas of Dallas I've been to. As a host, Dia is fantastic. She would check in with me every 1-2 days via text messaging, to see whether I was comfortable or needed anything. She is an artist, but is interested in discussing anything. We talked about science, sustainability, and creative leadership. I would certainly stay at her AirBnB again.
