I had a nice peaceful time with Luc and Laura for 2 weeks. We had good dinner every night, often fun conversation and expectations were not out of the ordinary.

We have stayed in Tingsryd with Laura & Luc for one and a half months. It began with just 2 weeks stay (first days of October) and it lasted until beginning of December! We have to say it was a great experience and they were very helpful all the time. We recommend 100% this workaway!

I spent a month with them and I can't find the words to describe these great people. Always very attentive and helpful, helping me and the other workawayers in whatever way they could. They are a wonderful couple and I hope one day to return to greet them or share a few drinks with them. jajaja
