Mireille, her home, and her neighborhood are incredible. After four weeks of work travel and a lovely ride down the coast on the Pacific Surfliner, I ubered rapidly from the train station to a peaceful respite near the park, food, and dear friends. Mireille was very welcoming, her home beautiful, her gardens lush, and her space dreamy. She helped me settle in, provided introduction to the cottage, and offered tips for my stay. The cottage is so lovingly crafted, including the adaptation of New Mexican cedar ceiling to save energy and keep you cool. I was able to shower, unpack, and then quickly travel to dinner, drinks, and dancing. I spent the next day reading, resting, and recovering. Mireille's garden provided butterflies and hummingbirds, and the cottage deep quiet and naps! I was able to emerge the next day for tea and Bread and Cie, late brunch at the Little Lion, treasures from the Ocean Beach People's Coop, and my flight back. I deeply recommend Mireille as a host and her incredible space.
