Urbashi Barua

I’m Urbashi Barua, a 50-year-old entrepreneur who has transformed a lifelong passion for hospitality into a thriving homestay business. For years, I dedicated myself to creating a warm and inviting home for my family and friends as a homemaker. Today, I bring that same warmth, care, and creativity to "Mi Casa," my homestay in Guwahati, Assam.

​

Driven by a desire for self-sufficiency, my entrepreneurial journey is a testament to the belief that it's never too late to follow one’s dreams. Through Mi Casa, I aim to offer guests not just a place to stay, but a home away from home—one filled with comfort, hospitality, and a personal touch.

​

I've always found joy in hosting and making people feel at home—this is the heart of my business. To me, hospitality goes beyond meeting basic needs; it’s about genuinely caring for my guests’ well-being and satisfaction. Each visitor is welcomed like family, and I take pride in catering to their individual preferences to make their stay truly memorable. From decor and cleanliness to thoughtful amenities and special touches, I pay meticulous attention to every detail to create a comfortable and enjoyable experience.

​

Beyond running my homestay, I have a deep love for interior design, constantly exploring new trends to enhance the beauty and comfort of my space. Gardening is another passion, allowing me to craft serene outdoor areas where guests can relax and unwind. Traveling fuels my curiosity and desire to learn, offering me valuable insights into diverse hospitality practices. I bring these experiences back to Mi Casa, enriching the guest experience with unique and personalized touches.
