Brad is an absolutely great host. He gave me many tips and was always very helpful. His apartment is very clean and lacking in nothing. Brad is very quiet when he goes or comes home, so you can sleep longer. I hope to go back to Austin the next time that Brad has the room free !!! Even without a car it is no problem to go downtown. For running it is slightly longer but it goes through a park along the river or it has near the house bus stations. I wish you a great time and keep your nice kind Brad. Thanks again for everything. Bye Doris
