Description

I grew up in a small village and have been living since then. I've been dreaming of looking at the world for a long time, so I quit my job and detached myself from most of what keeps me from being free. Now I can go almost anywhere I want and look forward to meeting and getting to know interesting cultures and friendly people.

Maggie was a great host for me. We did long bushwalks, cooked together, watched live music, made some arts or just talked ... as an exchange I mostly worked in the garden. I am happy that I was able to spend time with Maggie and her wonderful dogs and cats.
Thanks Maggie !
