I intended to visit downtown Queenstown but I found Frankton where Shirley's home is located really amazing to explore. Shirley gave my mum and me an effusive welcome. She is so warm-hearted, hospitable, and considerate. Helping us with our luggage, providing us with comfortable room with high-quality hygiene, making tea and coffee for us, helping us call Southern Discoveries to inquire about details of booking trip to Milford Sound, picking us up surprisingly when we just returned to Frankton Bus Shelter from Milford Sound, helping me solve problems of my car, giving me practical advice on my further self-driving travel, and talking with us about her family members, various Airbnb guests who she had hosted, Chinese culture and cuisine, to name a few. My feelings of gratitude for Shirley is undoubtedly beyond description, for I have never met an Airbnb host who would treat guests like family. We took photos with Shirley as we departed just in front of the staggeringly beautiful Queenstown Hill, which witnessed this indelible experience that we shared with her. Hopefully I can revisit Shirley's home in the near future and express my gratitude for her to her husband Noel who didn't show up in the past few days. Miss you so much dear Shirley. :)
Warmest Regards
