Her house is beautiful and working on it was a genuine pleasure. She is an incredibly warm, fun and interesting person who made me feel so welcome. Thanks a lot Amanda!… read more

It was our absolute pleasure to host Katharina. She was such a lovely respectful and responsible mature lady to have around, as well as hard working. Can't recommend Katharina enough - if you are lucky enough for her to enquire I'd say grab her before someone else does. We hope to see her again!

Pyry was a fantastic conversationalist, and all round nice guy. His English is perfect (studied in England). Helped out at the last minute with a tidy up of my garage before a kids party, and helped with a general tidy up. Have never had anyone from Finland stay before so was also extremely interesting finding out more about Finland.

Thanks so much for building our dog such a good fence, and for all the other items on my "wish/to do list".

We all really enjoyed Rob's time with us, and he was well missed by the kids also.

I stayed with Amanda between the 1st and 14th June. Firstly, Amanda's house in Chatswood is really cool; set in woodland with great views of Auckland City. The 973/974 bus from the city costs $5 each way from Albert Lane in Auckland and only takes 25 minutes, should you wish to venture.

I had plenty of varied work over the 2 weeks which… read more
