Description
I'm a music teacher living alone in a small house in a charming little Belgian town. In the near future, some works have to be done in my small garden and house, and some help would be lovely. With my husband and 2 sons, I used to live in France, but moved into Belgium again 2,5 years ago. My son is actually staying with me for a couple of months and we would love it to have some help from a handy person. We love nature, good and healthy food, good talks around the table, and an easy way of living without wasting.

As someone who has been using work away ro travel for several months, I can say with confidence that my time with Lut was a highlight of my trip and one of the best hosts I've stayed with. If you are looking for good food, good conversation and good company then this would be the place for you. The work is reasonable and Lut does an excellent job… read more

I had such an amazing time with Lut! She is very understanding with all the mistakes I made, given it was my first time working on a farm and gardening on more of a large scale. However, all the work was so much fun and I learned A LOT! The accommodations are also comfortable and the food is amazing! Except to gain some weight when you come here… read more

The stay and presence of Jolana was so amazingly natural that I did even not think about leaving a feedback, sorry for this delay!!
How could I describe Jolana, her kindness and her many many skills without once again, I can not say how happy I am that there's something as the World Wide Web that allowed me to meet her!

At a quite busy moment of the year, Violeta stayed 2 weeks with me and I feel very grateful towards her. She looked very good after the B&B during my days off to work and she received me with very nice dinners when I came home from work. She has a good sense of humor and we had often real fun. Also, we had very interesting conversations, and… read more

Lut and her beautiful family are the most generous, gracious and understanding hosts. There is always to smile, laugh and have lots of fun and delicious food! The garden is one of the most tranquil places to relax, listen to the birds and breath the fresh air. Everything is immaculately kept and the area is packed full of amazing experiences to… read more

Rosie stayed with us for about 3 weeks, and since she left, we're all missing her so much.
She's been a real sunshine in the house during those weeks, she's very good with people and animals, extremely helpful, honest and understanding. Sharing time with Rosie is pure quality time.
I wished I could welcome her again!

It was both our first workaway experience so we really took the leap with not having any feedback and I feel honoured being the first to write them their first good review of many that I am sure are to come.
