Petri was here for 4 months - came in winter and left as autumn was coming. A stable and good worker, - doing well, all that he did and was asked to do. No problems - can truly recommend him to anyone looking for good help. He did a large variety of things - digging, building, planting, painting, cooking... Thank you for your time here, Petri!

We hosted Petri for a few days while he was hiking through our area, we can definetly recommend him as a volunteer. An easygoing, hard working guy that felt reliable, with a lot of knowledge :slight_smile:
Good luck with the rest of your hike and future adventures!
