How do I start....perhaps just by saying that Jorunn is an excellent host! I have been staying at Airbnb places for years now but my experience staying with Jorunn has been far and beyond any before. She has been so very kind and courteous that the least I can do is write her a good review.
I arrived in Oslo on a red eye flight but the check in time for her place is later in the day - after her work hours. I was worried about where I would leave my heavy luggage and wait for hours before I can get a comfortable place to rest. I messaged her before leaving the states about this and she told me that she would manage so that she can leave for work after I arrive. That is exactly what happened. After two lay overs and a full night of travel I was exhausted when I got to Oslo. She told me exactly how to get to her place which was super convenient (Oslo public transportation is a dream but that is another story). And surely she was waiting to let me in before she went to work. I felt so happy to be able to get a comfy bed and a hot shower at that time! Aah! Curling up in that bed at that time was exactly what I needed.
She also asked me if I had any questions at that time and guided me with a map on how to get to the places I needed to. Her place is beautiful! Love the view and love the location - walking distance from many cheap and wonderful places to eat and grocery stores. I also loved the chats we had although they were few and far between - Jorunn and I both remained quite busy.
Also, she is a very generous host - telling me to eat and drink anything from her fridge. She also told me of a black party happening in her building. Living with Jorunn is a very fond memory - probably a highlight of my trip. She is such a wonderful host that I would seek out her place when I come back to Oslo. Thanks Jorunn. You are a wonderful host!
