We was great company to myself and fellow workawayers.
Made my pigs and ducks a nice home for the cold nights.
Highly recommended
Fairly reserved, Uli was always willing to do what was requested. Maybe need a slight push here and there.
For my first experience it was perfect.
To mention they were very clean too! Very cheerful and spent quality time with the animals.
Highly recommend for any host looking for workawayers.
Exemplary!!
