Sue was a really nice host, made me feel at home and very comfortable. The place was absolutely amazing, cozy and very good location. I had a good time with Sue, we shared a good talk and we were playing Monopoly almost everyday. Was really funny and I enjoyed a lot. I definitely recommend Sue as a host for a lovely experience and exchange. We had a good tome together and I hope we can meet soon again. X I miss our games haha Thank u so much Sue

Sue is an amazing person! So kind, attentive, and also funny. I loved spending time with her; hope we can do it again someday! The tasks are really easy; you have plenty of time to enjoy the city and also rest a lot. I also could push myself with the cooking skills, which I loved!
