It was an amazing experience, especially since we got an upgrade to the bigger room on the first floor! The house is very tastefully done and I was excited to know that Patricia is an enthusiastic traveler and writer! It was very thoughtful of her to keep her India travel story in our room and she was generous enough to even offer me a ride to the mall. She's a fabulous host and I wish I had more time with her to talk about her journeys! Thank you again for the book as a farewell present and giving us our private space as well as sightseeing suggestions!
