I recommand this place.
Kamala is such a loveley, welcoming person. She showed me her loveley hometown with the beautifull beach. Just a short walk behind her tropical garden.
I get a smile on my face, when I remember how beautiful this area is.
Work is not hard, though I love gardening and repairing thinks.
Thank you Kamala.
