Mark is the best host and I highly recommend you to stay with him. I've stayed in Mark's house with my friend for about 3 months this summer and I will never forget this experience. He is very kind and warmhearted, and gave us lots of suggestions and support for our traveling. Also, this place has a perfect location: tranquil neighborhood, accessible restaurants and markets, convenient public transportation. Moreover, I really like Mark's dog Kenji! He is sooooo cute and intelligent! I enjoy giving him some food I cook :D I'm glad I have met Mark and looking forward to staying with him again.
