Mak was a legend. I was made to feel welcome and asked to think of his home as my own. I stayed for 5 weeks while studying a short course. He's very sociable and easy going. If he's got time you're be guaranteed all sort of insight in Valencian culture, and indeed lots of world culture as Mak's more or less as well travelled polyglot. The view from the his flat on the 6th floor is also fantastic. I was very sad to leave.
