Shannon's place is indeed stunning and he himself is a perfect host. His house is located in a cute little street in the mission, a very cool neighborhood. Access to his place was easy and the room is spacious with a comfy bed, books and water - the extra was that he had even set up a bottle of wine, snacks and fresh flowers. We spent an evening together talking about work and life, and I must say it could not have been a more pleasant time.
On thing to note is that the victorian house is not soundproof and nightly noise from the outside and the neighbors are common. I still managed to sleep like a rock, but if you are sensitive, bring earplugs.
Thanks again, Shannon - you are a 5 star hist and I hope we will stay in touch.
