My extended stay at Cindi's beautiful home was beyond what I could have imagined. Cindi was such a wonderful host, with great attention detail and quick to anticipate basic needs. Her thoughtful kindness made me feel as though I was visiting a familiar friend. Cindi kept her home spotless, her cupboards organized, and those plush sheets in the guest room, freshly laundered. Everything about her home felt warm and cozy, which was perfect for this SoCal native who wasn't used to the brisk San Francisco mornings and evenings.
As a busy graduate student who liked to meal prep for the week, I loved using her beautiful Viking stove in her spacious kitchen. And I greatly appreciated how Cindi seamlessly made room for my pantry items and fresh produce in her refrigerator. Additionally, as an avid cyclist, I was also grateful that she helped accommodate safe storage of my road bike, during the week. And as a newcomer to the city, I loved the proximity of her home to a little bit of everything: supermarket, restaurant, the Marina, the local farmer's market on Saturdays, the Palace of Fine Arts, and so much more. I will certainly think of Cindi's home for the next extended trip to San Francisco.
Thank you, Cindi, for making my visit so wonderful!
