Theresa was a most gracious and kind host. She offered a great snack plate with sweets and savories, including fresh fruit, that she generously replenished several times over during my stay. Theresa swaps avocados from her backyard tree for fruit from neighbors, so if the season is right, you may be treated to loquats, persimmons and avocados from her neighborhood. She also allowed me to browse her book collection and connected me with the LA Public Library OverDrive app to download audio books. She was warm and welcoming and I greatly appreciated her hospitality. She also directed me to a great little Thai place in the area. An excellent conversationalist and lifelong Southern Californian, she could direct me almost anywhere I needed to go, and make recommendations on the best places to see. After a long day touring, I enjoyed taking a hot shower in her newly remodeled bathroom. The bedroom featured a comfy duvet, plenty of pillows, and a fan if it got too hot. Her check in instructions were clear and made things very easy!
