What is hospitality?
A guest recently stated we were an establishment for the non-anonymous.
This is an interesting statement.
Since we are very small and there a re few places like ours I must conclude that the majority of travellers like to be anonymous even though every one can see them, hear them and smell them,
Big hotels are for the anonymous.
I wonder if this is true or deep down every one would like to stay in a place where they feel at home.
I have also been pleasantly surprised by a number of very special guests that we have had this week. None of them are famous but each of them is unique and a little gem that helps add a grain of hope to this society.
A guest from France that lives in a city that was populated by Spanish republicans and refugees from the Spanish war. These republicans fought later for the French resistance and they were the first troops to liberate Paris at the end of World War two.
France does not recognise such but here we have a French citizen that has come to the city to pay tribute to the freedom fighters of her country,
This is nice.
We also had for a week a very very old lady in her 80 s travelling a lone around the world.
When you get to that age and your are fit to enjoy life then the no worries sign pops, stays up and you never see worries where they are not.
We must learn form the elderly, true wisdom. She saw my cat and called her fat sausage. True Wisdom.
The cats loves this name.
