I really can't say enough good about Martina's place. Martina is a kind and peaceful presence upon arrival; to arrive at her place after a long slog from the city is to find oneself in a dream of misty mountains, golden light, and shining fields. Swaying bowers of well kept nasturtiums and many other flowers of every color cascaded over the walls, and the house itself was spacious and cozy at once. The mood of the place seemed ethereal in some way, a haven of compassion and thoughtfulness. Upon arrival into the two story home, we were were delighted and grateful at every turn exploring the place. After a long rainy day spent mostly outside the next day, Martina's place provided us with the wonderful option to build a warm fire in the kitchen and have some laughs over chamomile tea before sleep (there were two easy chairs and we placed a cushion which one of us had brought on a kitchen chair so there was plenty of space for the three of us to enjoy).
There was ample space in the upstairs bedroom for me to quietly move through my early am yoga practice, where overhead the skylight gently let in the dim light of dawn to help my body know the nature of the morning. The shower was nice and hot. The kitchen had everything needed and I really loved the portrait painting of a cow who looks like a person, so worthy of focus.
If you want to feel grounded, warm, safe, and free to be yourself at your air bnb, while in the midst of a place kept up with care and attentiveness, Martina's place is the place for you. With loving appreciation, Lara
