Oh wow, that's amazing. I want to know why she had a stuffed ostrich! And why she never went back.

I love this story, I used it as a Safe House in the Time 2 Travel blog.

That place has less dust build-up after 70 years than my place accumulates over a week!

I also wondered about the dust, just having seen a movie where a character was released from prison and returned to his Paris apartment finding it covered in dust.

I guess no people = limited dust - if it's true that dust is mostly skin cells...

Wow, I'm glad you mentioned that blog, Whelk. Cool.

This is incredibly cool, and a little bit sad.
