I've always found that people appreciate a hand-written letter. The only drawback is that not everyone will get to see quite how appreciative you are of their hospitality, gift or support. So, thank goodness for AirBNB comments section. The whole world will now realise how splendid I think Michelle's guesthouse in Austin really is.
Myriad personalised touches, comfortable beds, ground coffee in the freezer and milk in the fridge, excellent (and much needed) air conditioning - and a old, functioning record player on which I played several actual vinyl records - a highlight. Michelle's home is fantastic, located in a groovy neighbourhood with good bars/restaurants and a short hop/Uber into town. Moreso, Michelle and family - and lovely dogs - are warm, inviting and helpful. If you're in this neck of the woods, book in. Thank you Michelle. Sorry this isn't a hand-written letter.
