Amanda's flat was AMAZING. From the moment I entered, and saw the dragonfly door knocker (that i have at my guesthouse in virginia) I felt at home. The interior felt like a fabulous feast of color and interesting sculpture, art and books. I wish I could spend a few weeks here disappearing into the bed and book selection. I started to read the Dog Whisperer dog training book to help me train my sweet chocolate lab (my first dog.) The textiles - luscious: a cozy night in her comfy bed, and a quaint evening in the clawfoot tub with a dim lamp beside and a fine cup o tea. Thank you Amanda for your inspiration. Makes me want to do up my house with similar threads. The only challenging thing for me was walking alone at night. Although her house is one block from my dear friend's house (who got married this weekend), i was a bit spooked walking alone at night. Don't know if this is founded, or if i am just a country bumpkin (aka wuss).. The flat is 1 house down from a main street, however, which is well populated with a cool co-op just around the corner. And the parking is right behind the house in a private area right next to the entrance, so by car I felt safe. The building itself feels safe. Cherished my experience here. Thank you Amanda! Also, she was very responsive. I got lost on my way here and she was very accessible to bail me out.
