Mara seemed to never be very far away from a device to be able to respond as swiftly as she did. Upon arrival after easy instructions, I couldn't help but smile as to the kind of lively house she runs. She showed me my room and bathroom and gave me the keys and basically told me to be her guest and to go and come back as I saw fit:) Mara offered me a good Italian espresso before I hit the city and invited me for dinner which I unfortunately couldn't attend due to a pre-booked show. After my show she invited me for tea and biscuits and we had the most wonderful chat, together with her husband, while watching the telly. Without noticing it had become quite late and I felt completely at home:) The next day she called me for breakfast and I had another chat with her and her son, all like feeling part of the family. The room was perfect, the bed was good; when I closed my eyes, I was gone. The bathroom was warm and the shower hot:) Everyone in the house was as friendly as one can get. The neighborhood is quiet yet lively shops are nearby and so is public transport (train, busses, tube). Never change!
