He really wants to learn new skills, he was helpful, and he helped us with our electricity.
thanks again Julien.
Lewis is a fine joker, a fine plasterer and a good chef too. Their paintings are really impressive. This English lifestyle in this pretty area was really great. I hope I can come back to practise plastering.
Go well
