We had a wonderful time in New York and it started with our arrival at Crysdian’s home. Crysdian, Thomas and beautiful 4 legged Henri gave us such a warm welcome that we felt like friends coming home. Apart from wonderful recommendations of what to see and do, they were also thoughtful enough to share their concerns for us and supplied us with good advice to help ensure our safety during our trip. We had the apartment to ourselves during our stay but Crysdian was never far away. He is a wonderful host! He contacted us on a daily basis to check in and ensure we were doing well and all our needs were being met. He visited us a few times during our stay to bring supplies and ensuring our comfort. He even offered to meet us in various areas of the city to share a coffee. Regrettably our timetables never matched but we appreciated his thoughtfulness. Travel to and from the apartment was so easy, the station for the subway is literally feet away. Thank you again to all of you for being part of making this a wonderful trip for us. We look forward to meeting again, perhaps a trip our way ; - )
