Jim's home was a great start to my trip to Sydney--convenient to the train, comfortable, interesting Hindu art and an entire wall of good books. The room itself was cozy with a balcony and there is a charming leafy garden out back. Jim is an interesting person, like me he's writing a novel and I really enjoyed our conversations; he told me about the Sydney Writers' Festival going on nearby, and about his writing group. And as another benefit I had the company of MAX, Jim's beautiful black feline 'co-host' whose companionship I also enjoyed! Would definitely book with Jim again!
