About the host
Hosted by Linda Urioste
Hi Im Linda, I live in Atlanta Georgia but originally from South Florida. My husband "Bobby" was born in a very small rural town, Anton Chico New Mexico. His large family of eight siblings and his parents relocated to Albuquerque in 1957. Bobby was raised in close proximity to this home he built himself, and with the help from is nephews in 2008. Bobby attended primary school at Alameda Elementary just a mile down the street from this AirBNB. After leaving high school Bobby enjoyed much success as a professional jockey, starting his career at the Thoroughbred/Quarter Horse Tracks in Albuquerque, Santa Fe and at Ruidoso Downs, in Sacramento Mountains of southern New Mexico. By Bobby's mid-twenties, we were married and raising a family in South Florida. Bobby reestablished his skills in the drywall trade, from a family-owned business in Albuquerque as a teenager. He established a successful drywall business in south Florida. We built several homes in South Florida. This home, “The Balloon Fiesta Home” was the last, built by Bobby. The home became an Airbnb in 2019. The wide spacious hallway in this home tells the history of the home, Bobby's extremely successful endeavors, and boasts photos of other homes we built in South Florida, including a Magnificent equestrian facility Barn/home in Wellington Florida, home to many Olympian Hunter/Jumper riders and horses. I enjoy hosting and reading stories of guests. If you are in the Albuquerque area, please consider staying.
