Yvonne and Agnes were wonderful hosts. At first I spent time with Agnes, who was housesitting while Yvonne was away. Agnes was very kind and hospitable, even though she was feeling a bit under the weather while I was there. She made sure I had everything I needed and then some, including fresh fruit, cookies, food to eat in the kitchen, and more. She really went out of her way to make sure I was at home, even sharing some homemade cloudberry jam with me and thus causing my newfound addiction to cloudberries.

When Yvonne arrived, we had a chance to drink tea and chat, and I'm really glad we did. She's wonderful to talk to and I'm glad we had a chance to connect!

Overall, Yvonne has created a beautiful, inviting, and cozy space. Her home is full of thoughtful touches and comfy corners. The loft bedroom is comfy and beautiful to come home to after a long day of exploring Oslo.

The location is perfect for exploring Inges Gate, Mattehallen food market, or quickly hopping on a tram to Central Station for access to the rest of Oslo. It's quite easy to walk there, as well. Tickets can be purchased at the 7/11 just up the street. There are also two grocery stores nearby and a wonderful local restaurant called Nokken.

Oh, and I can't forget Lucia - I've met many cats, and guests are totally right to say that she is one of the friendlist I've ever met. Truly a sweetheart and really wonderful to be around!
