I stayed six weeks with Harry & Silvia. They are good hosts willing to care about their guests. Monday to Friday the work had a clear structure and I enjoyed the tasks outdoors. Weekends were free. During my stay there were always at least two other workawayers with me and it was a family-like atmosphere working, eating and playing together.
