Magdalena is a great host. She has gotten me acquainted to the local Barrio as soon as I arrived and made me feel instantly at home—even offering me a late lunch when I arrived at her door after a long journey. The house is full of character and anyone who prefers the charm of the old to the cold austerity of modernism will have a great time. I had a great time talking to Magda about a range of subjects and believe that any person with cultural and political interest will find her to be a great person to talk to.
