Sharing the home of Thomas and his beautiful cats was fun and uncomplicated. You can easily tell that Thomas is an experienced host so he makes you feel at home without intruding. Neither do the cats, they are also used to visitors. The house itself is a 1920´s beauty. It is within walking distance of the La Brea tar pits and the LACMA, one of the great art museums of the world (though partially closed for construction work but with plenty to see anyway). For me this was the decisive factor. There are restaurants all around but for serious shopping you will have to go a little further from this safe residential Midtown neighborhood. Yeah, I felt at home.
