He stayed with us for 2 weeks and he helped med preparing the ceiling in our boathouse.
He also did some outdoor painting and some gardening/ grass cutting etc.
He is always willing to solve and help with new tasks!
We can safely recommend him as your coming workawayer!
She became as a member of our big family from day one, and we could have wished that she had more than one week together with us! We wish her all the best and look forward to see here again later!
