Being in Marie's home was incredible and I had the feeling of still being at home! She is such an incredible, intelligent woman! Her house was very well furnished, food was excellent, and the location is near the city-center as well. I didn't miss home that much with her, and we had long and interesting conversations around the dinner table. I would recommend her without any hesitations!
