It was a pleasure sharing our home with Susan! She is a dream guest, with excellent and clear communication from the start and throughout her stay, and she left the house in absolutely perfect order. It is such a gift to arrive back home to a perfectly clean and tidy house, and she even left us some delicious gifts in the fridge to enjoy when we got home! Susan took excellent care of our garden, and offered to manage our mail and anything else the house needed during her stay. Susan would be very welcome to come stay again any time, and I recommend her highly for any other exchange.
