We think that it was better than most and not as good as a few. The accommodation was very good although we found it a little warm inside the house at times, despite the fans. The couple had left the house very clean and with quite good instructions. They very generously left a basket of goodies and arranged for friends to collect us from the airport and return us there. It quickly felt like home.
hiša je točno taka kot je v opisu. vse je bilo kot smo se dogovorili
This was a hospitality exchange and Nina was a lovely host. I really enjoyed staying with her. She took me sightseeing, although I hired a car and made plans what to visit and what to see. Nina even organized a birthday party for me, introduced me to her friends. We went to concerts together, to dinners at local restaurants, it was extraordinary being submerged heavily into the local culture and social interaction. I loved it!
Everything was wonderful! Nina welcomed us very warmly. We had an unforgettable experience at her home! Thank you once again.
