Paul and Natt, thanks for writing and posting the article.
Looks like you get all types of interesting guests from all over the world. Great article and pictures. Thanks for sharing and this is just another example of why being a warmshowers host can be so rewarding.
In case you missed it the first time. (see link below) I'll be updating the article later this year to include cyclists I have hosting since the article was published. Adventure Cycling has some other great blog posts. I encourage others to write articles about hosting or hosts.
