Sonya and Eddie were fantastic workawayers! They helped us greatly when we really needed help and they were very trustworthy and happy to do whatever we needed.
They both seem far more mature than their age.
I would highly recommend them.

Anna and luca were fantastic workawayers! We really couldn't have asked for more. They would jump into any job I needed and help with it. Even when they were put under pressure.
Anna washed lots of costumes and Luca made props for my studio ballet concert. They also did handyman jobs and cleaned up our garden.
It was a pleasure hosting them!
