Three words: accuracy, beauty & care
Accuracy: All that Maria had written in the description I read before booking, was what I got when I stayed for 5 months at her place. On the one hand, I felt the cozy atmosphere. On the other, I sensed Maria's tenderness and love in the way she had put together furniture and decoration.
Beauty: Everyday I felt amazed with the great view I had from the kitchen's window. I learned that the same point of view could show beautifully the colours of the hours and the weather movements.
Care: After asking Maria's help in any issue that came about during my stay, I was always very grateful for her caring and empathetic response.

Things are not always perfect but it is always great to encounter caring persons like Maria to cherish life and help come out with the best out of any problem.
I wish Maria gets retribution, with lots of gratefulness and love, for all the effort and care she puts to host Lisbon visitors like me.
