I am staying for a few days in Red Bank, New Jersey with Lisa, Steve, Max and Grace only by virtue of the fact that Lisa used to be the owner of one of the other flats in my block in London. Having exchanged little more than hellos on the way to and from work over a decade ago I am shown unbelievable kindness and welcomed into their beautiful home. I am fed and watered for free, as well as being taken out for drinks and introduced to John and Rick some local surfers. What a wonderful time.
I can’t thanks them enough for the time spent here, which allows me to catch up on myself and see a bit more of America which isn’t on the Tourist trail. Beautiful people.

Hey Rob, it was a pleasure to have you stay here in Red Bank. I am only sorry we could not have given you the surf you wanted, but a mamouth bike ride took it’s place! Good luck on your next leg, and remember to come back and stay when you are on our shores again and maybe those surf boys Rick and John can show you a few waves.
It was great to re-connect after all these years, practically strangers, but now good friends! Good luck and stay safe.
Lisa, Steve, Max & Grace
