Kristy and Daniel are a very nice couple and very good workaweyers. They were my guests for 4 months and completed a number of projects at my house. They are nice communicators and I learned a lot from them. Kristy is also very good in the kitchen.
If given the opportunity I would be glad to have them again.

Any and Paul are a very nice young couple. They are hard workers possessing a lot of insight knowledge in all projects they worked on at my house. Well educated and well-traveled, it was a pleasure to talk to on any subject. If given the opportunity I will be glad to see them again as either workaweyers or just as guests.

Stefanos visited me for a short time but during this short time, I got one more good friend. A man with a strong eagerness to learn and a good communicator. We spent hours discussing different topics, working together, and enjoying the time.

My stay and work at Boyko’s was excellent! A trip full of learning material and beautiful memories. Boyko is such an amazing soul, full of beautiful life stories and extreme knowledge on everything that surrounds our lives, from cooking and cleaning to gardening and building. Boyko and I worked indoors most of the time, and we drove to the stores… read more
