Susan showed to be the best host one can think of. I stayed at her apartment for 5 nights. Every morning she prepared me a very healthy breakfast and once I caught the #2 bus, I would be at the downtown Hilton, next to the conference center, within 25-30 minutes, including a 15 minutes walk throughout the lively Gaslamp district.

Not only did she pick me up (and dropped me off) at the airport at a cheaper rate than the taxi would, but one night she also very kindly gave me a lift to an excellent Italian restaurant 10 blocks away as it was getting a little late.

She knows a lot of good places to eat, to visit and to relax. She keeps in good shape and her healthy lifestyle is kind of contagious, which is nice because San Diego is a town to be discovered by foot... or by bike, although her immediate neighborhood is quite hilly at times.

Susan is also an adept of music and arts and has traveled extensively which makes it for interesting discussions.

She may offer, as she rightly says, one of the best deals in San Diego!
