We was happy to help him around the house and garden;)
Our room was good and everything was clean.
we can totally recommend Rodney, he is friendly, funny and cool😀
He took us surfing, cooked us some amazing food and showed us places. The work consisted of a little gardening, house keeping, speaking German or feeding worms ;).
We really had an amazing time and can only recommend everyone to stay at his place!
Thanks Rodney for everything,… read more
