Staying at Caroline’s was pure joy! Caroline and her relatives went absolutely above and beyond to make my friend and I feel welcome and safe and help with random things that came about. Everyone in the buliding are relatives, and it was clear people knew each other in the neighborhood, which are the qualities that reassure me most. The room and its attached bathroom were also cozy and spotless, as well as the common room and kitchen. As a side note, the corner shops near the apartment make really tasty sandwiches. It was halloween, and Caroline even helped facilitate me buying an old umbrella off one of her tenants to use in my costume. Later on, I was silly enough to leave my shoes that I had spray-painted out to dry way out on the sidewalk where it looked like I intended them to be up for grabs. When I suddenly found myself without any shoes, Caroline and her relatives were the nicest ever and gave me some shoes that their niece had outgrown! All around, an adventure I will never forget in a wonderful place with wonderful people :)
