I don't even know how to start describing this experience. What was supposed to be six weeks turned into four months because of the quarantine (Covid-19).
This family is a rarity! It's wonderful to be with them. Lukas is funny and loves sweets. Iwo has plenty of energy, is a smart boy and we played a lot. I was a kid again when I was with him!… read more

Kariny s a "super woman".
She is very kind and nice, and she just knows what you need.
She is a huge help for us.
She has a great contact with our son.
Not knowing English well is not a problem at all as she understands most things and has google translator.
If she decides to visit you - you are lucky :)

That was my best workaway experience so far! Sara, Łukas are amazing, they made me feel really comfortable and Iwo is really cute!
It was really important for me that they accepted my last minute request even if I was not necessarily needed and even if they would go for holidays - so I had to stay in the mountain hunt with the other family.
