I gave English classes to Jane while I stayed in her house and it was a remarkable experience.
Although Jane is serious and kind of demanding when it comes to agreements, she tries to strike a balance and is also somewhat laid-back. In other words, we weren't too much attached to the time when I'd give classes, for example, so long as I did my… read more

Foi incrível receber o Cazé e a Tainá... sempre muito amáveis e disponíveis para qualquer tarefa, e todas que realizaram foram muito eficientes . Mas a parte mais agradável é a convivência com eles que são pessoas leves, sorridentes e de bem com a vida. São cuidadosos e ordenados com o espaço que ocupam e também o ambiente em comum .

He is a very simple person and his dietary requirements were not a problem. He left my house more beautiful with his creativity and paintings.

Marina y Samuele fueran geniales todos los días que pasamos juntos. Dejarán mi terreno limpio, Samuele construyó una estantería mucho útil para la casa y también arregló las cajas de mi subsolo. Se lo cocinaran casi todo qué comieron y dejaron siempre todo limpio y organizada toda la casa. Fue increíble, gracias amigos y buena ruta.
