My trip in LA was magnificent thanks to Karen's hospitality.
Many people say it is impossible to be in LA without a car, but I didn't have one and with Karen's help I was able to manage all my meetings and visit without problems. The area is very safe, there is the Big Blue Bus n.8 three min walk from Karen's house and it takes you directly to the sea (Santa Monica Pier) or to the nearest Metro Station (Expo Line). Also, Uber and Lyft work very well. Karen gave me advice on where to eat, what to visit and she also helped me printing out some documents I needed for a meeting! She also cared about my safety. It was beautiful, the house is clean and welcoming, I could also use the kitchen for cooking. It was my first time in LA and now I can't wait to visit it again! Thanks Karen for making my stay so good.
