My seven or so weeks with Lynne and Arfa were rich and thoroughly enjoyable. The work was varied in the plant nursery and on various tasks around the property and community, and it felt rewarding to help Lynne and Arfa in their meaningful and ecologically significant work.

We had the pleasure of staying with Lynn and Arthur for two weeks and are grateful for the experience. They are warm, welcoming, and caring hosts. Their two adorable dogs and kunikuni pigs were a joy to be around, always eager for a scratch.

Helen was an absolute delight to have in our home. She quickly became comfortable and was very easy to talk with. She is wise and perceptive beyond her years, but still lots of fun. She even taught us a new game skyjo!
She is strong and fit and was happy to do all the jobs we set.
Helen would be welcome back any time.

She is self motivated, self managing and has a real appetite for learning.
