Diana's family is super welcoming. We spent about two weeks there. The kids are full of energy and the house is beautiful. The work consisted mainly of carpentry, childcare and cooking. Thank you Diana and co for your welcome.

We just stayed 4 days with these guys and we had a good time. They are all very funny (especially the kids) and the house is amazing!!! We didn't had to work to hard and they are easy going, which made us feel very good at their place! Thanks again :)

Francine was incredible! We couldn’t have enjoyed her company help and fun! She was so helpful and willing to be part of our family, no job was to hard for her to try. She will be terribly missed and always welcome back to our farm. We will always stay in contact with her. Cannot recommend enough! :purple_heart::purple_heart:
