Everyone in the family loved having Megane stay with us. We enjoyed hearing about her work and travels as a chef. Tasting her food was even better than hearing about it! She was eager to practice English and liked trying new foods at the local food festival.

My week at Nicole and Rowan's was awesome! They are both so open, welcoming, fun, interesting and nice. Their dog, Harely, is super cute and lovable, and I loved meeting their daughter, too. Their house is awesome and I had a great time in Wellington. They are very laid-back about the work - I did some dog-sitting, raking, cleaning and that's… read more
