Andrea greeted me with a hug and said farewell with a kiss. She is a wonderful person and I'm so happy to have spent time with her. She is an outgoing, thoughtful and upbeat person - exactly what you want in a host, especially after a long trip. And her home is fabulous; an eclectic apartment in an historical building in Palermo. It was the perfect base camp for me, I found it very easy to get around from her location and even walked to a number of destinations directly from her home. I would stay with Andrea again in a heartbeat. Thank you Andrea! xo
