Timo was a great host in Asheville. His place is just a quick drive or uber ride away from the heart of downtown Asheville, and has easy highway access to the Blue Ridge Parkway or to head out west to the Smokies (both what I was really there for). He was helpful in providing suggestions of scenic areas along to parkway to check out as well as ensuring there were enough warm comforts including extra blankets, space heater in the room and a warm fire going in the living room.
