Siri and Josh are two wonderful people.
Even if the life was rude against them, This couple is full of love and empathy, and ready to receive any volunteer from everywhere.
There is always something to do, especially with Siri who has big plans in mind about how this place is gonna be.
But don't be worried ! They are full of empathy and they

And if you want to learn whatever you want (carpentry, kitchen, animals care) they will let you do, support you, and gives you the place and the tools to learn in the best conditions ! In my case they let me build my first furniture (a wooden shelf) from scratch !
Josh is a wonderful cooker always open to discuss about how he makes is specialties or how the queen was such an adorable person !

It's hard to put into words just how much we enjoyed having Rod stay with us.

Beyond his hard work, his positive attitude, kind nature, and sense of humor brought a great deal of warmth and joy to our house. His contributions were invaluable, and his presence made a significant impact on our lives. The amount of work we managed to get done during his time here was truly impressive, and it is something we will never forget or stop being grateful for.

What an incredible experience I had with Josh and Siri. I spent very peaceful days in their home close to nature, taking care of beautiful bunnies that loved to be petted, and I even got a favorite chicken.

Having Elizabeth staying with us was a unique experience. She brought her own perspective to our projects during her time at our house. We've appreciated her effort and willingness to contribute, as well as her fantastic cooking.
