Ling greeted me in a polite and friendly manner. since i was there for a film shoot, we didn't see each other after that, but she was good about texting me in answer to my questions. her home has all white walls, which i like, since it brings the california sunlight into the house nicely. the place was very clean, and she easily made space in her fridge to store some food i had bought for our film shoot. she doesn't have facilities to make coffee, but there is a 7/11 store just a few blocks from her house, and i got my morning coffee there. the friendly store clerks seemed to know everyone who came in for coffee as the neighborhood workforce came in to start their day. the neighborhood and the house were very quiet and i would certainly stay here again.
