Winnie welcomed me like a friend. She took me to some local delicious eating places -- Green Cuisine, Nourish, and Niagra Market -- and brought me with her to hang out with her friends and play cribbage. I felt so welcomed and included. The ground floor flat felt like home and was literally a few minutes walk to both the beach and the neighborhood hub with its coffee shops and soups, sandwiches, curries and samosas. Best neighborhood. Most welcoming host. Comfortable bed. New friendship!
