Anne was a great host and exceptionally sweet individual. It was a great opportunity to be able to talk to her about Vancouver and life in general and hear her insights. At one point on the trip when i got a very difficult splinter in my foot and asked for her help, she came to my aid in an impressive display of field medicine and caring. Also her place in Vancouver has a lot of charm and with the trees in the garden outside and surrounding the house is especially livable.
