I am not sure where to begin really, in terms of how positive and enjoyable my stay was. Mara and her family are exceptional hosts. I was in need of short stay housing due to delays with the finalisation of my letting agreement in London. Accordingly, I had more than a few possessions with me when I arrived on her doorstep. This was not a problem for Mara, and in fact, she could not have been more accommodating in terms of my circumstances. Her home is quite inviting, including her lovely garden and animals. Further, Mara and her family are great for friendly conversation. Each day, they took care to prepare breakfasts and dinners that were a fantastic way to start and end the day, respectively. Mara went out of her way during my stay in her house, and I cannot emphasise this enough. Whilst it was unfortunate that my stay in her house had to end, I am happy to now have her as my neighbour. Most importantly, however, I am happy to now have her and her family as friends.
