He was particularly helpful with tasks around meals and making my kitchen tidy again, took the initiative to prepare meals for my family and the other workawayers. It was nice for me to have him helping m in the kitchen
Raul worked with great precision, which was particularly valuable when he took on the task of painting the wooden window frames, a job that requires a lot of attention to detail. His meticulous approach made all the difference.
Both Mikael and Raul were a joy to have, and our family hopes to see them again in the future.
Me and my partner stayed and worked here for a week and we could not have asked for a nicer stay. It was our first Workaway but it really felt like a perfect Workaway exchange! And we are so happy to have met Benedicte and her family and for a few days we also felt part of it! 😊

Other amazing things about this place was the big family dinners, ping pong table and pool, the ability to borrow a car if you are an experiences driver and that you could shape the working hours depending on what the group wanted!
We already miss the place and the family and wish them the best luck and the best workawayers in the future!

The experience with Benedicte and Jean-Luc was extraordinary!

Benedicte and Jean-Luc are extremely kind, cultured, wise and interesting people with whom there was a pleasant and enriching communication right from the start.
Together with their very nice daughter Jane and three other workawayers, we had a very enjoyable time. We took care of the windows, the persins, and the paint in the living room, and so we were all able to learn something. At the end of the day, whether it was work or rest, we gathered for a lavish aperitif under the magnificent plane trees.
I would like to thank Benedicte enormously for her trust, sincerity and advice and Jean Luc for his infinite kindness and sympathy!Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

I spent the most wonderful week with Bénédicte, Jean-Luc, their daughter and 4 other Workawayers!

The work is 5 hours

If you're looking for laughs, good conversations and great meals, this is the place to be! I'm very grateful for my time here and wish I could've stayed longer. Thank you Bénédicte, Jean-Luc and Jane for this experience!! <3Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.
