It was a delight hosting them.
Both are super energetic and focused. Lyne has the magical ability to jump in on any project and get it done, including cooking awesome food and cleaning up.
I would recommend any host to welcome them to their home.
Please come back!
We appreciated the variety of the work (greenhouse, gardening, development of a walking trail, etc...) and also the autonomy we had.
We were their first work-awayers, and they did their best to make us feel comfortable and happy. We'd come back to see them any… read more
They were wonderful.
Hard working, they self managed each project to completion
They were very pleasant to be around, eating meals and talking and playing marbles!
They cleaned up after themselves and helped establish our studio apartment as a living space.
We would welcome them back anytime!
