Ludo was a fantastic host. Walked back with me from the train station, even after arriving really light after my flight was delayed. We had a great conversation on the walk to his apartment.
He was very accomodating, the apartment is lovely and cozy. The city of Mestre has a great charm to it, I wish I could have stayed longer. Luco recommended a great restaurant and had other useful info for getting around Italy. A pleasurable and very hospitable start to my trip :)
