Staying in Odette's home was such a delightful experience. I was traveling with another female friend. She was very helpful in orienting us with the city, giving us tips on walking routes that would be well-lit on our way home and was very attentive to giving us the privacy and freedom needed, even though we were sharing her home. Her husband was also very kind and insisted that we call them if we ever felt in danger. Thanks to Odette, Cape Town has been promoted to one of my favorite places to visit. Don't forget to see the penguins!
