Alejandra and Matias stayed with us 13 days. They are very nice, friendly, open-hearted and helpful young couple. They never wait for tasks, just find the work themselves and do it excellent. We liked them very much. Hope to see them again.

From the moment Ale and Mati entered the house there was so much positive vibes coming up. Ale and Mati have a very positive attitude, focused, dedicated and experienced. We met at a high time of my renovation: lots of things to do. We had a great time with the fresh cherries, lake swimming, cooking, garden coffee, construction work etc.

Alejandra is an amazing person and we enjoyed so much having her part of our team here in the farm!
With relaxed and calm understanding of the environnement around her, she managed to integrate socially and in the work that it felt almost felt like she has been with us for months.
We hope to have her back one day. Good luck Alejandra!!
