Ian was the best possible host for my 2 friends and me! We connected immediately because of his welcoming manner when he picked us up at the airport and his great sense of humor. His apartment was comfortable and close to city centers with great views. He took us on tours of Cape Town and surrounding areas every day and even cooked 2 meals for us. We had some very interesting conversations and appreciated the helpful information he gave us. We consider him a friend now and hope to host him some time soon in Oregon. Jan Rowe
