We flew to YVR with our 2 small dogs and 8 huge suitcases during a blizzard just hours before the airport shut down due to the weather. Moving home after years abroad is quite a stressful endeavour.
Sandeep’s place was a warm and welcome refuge after a hectic and emotional 20 hrs in transit for all of us.
The suite was tidy, the heat was on, milk was in the fridge, lots of extra blankets, comfortable bed. Everything we needed to recover from a long journey.
When we woke up the city had ground to a halt due to the snow.
I had a 10am appointment with Canada Customs near Science World to deal with the paperwork and ID verification for shipping our furniture home from overseas. Customs was running very late for my appointment because staff were stuck in traffic.
Sandeep was very understanding that I was going to be late for check out time.
I was very grateful to have had such a kind and thoughtful host in the middle of a hectic international relocation.
Thank you, Sandeep!
