Linda's place was like a friendly oasis, only that it was in the middle of a snow blizzard and not the hot desert. She waited patiently for me until I arrived late in the evening and welcomed me warmly with a hot cup of tea. The house is spotless and the bedroom ample and comfortable. It got a little cold at night —middle of January— but the hot water bottle in the bed made me tingle with coziness. She gave me great information on things I was interested in and was fun and open to talk to. I highly recommend staying at her house. Thank you Linda.
