Philip is good company. He fixed the stove in the yurt and stayed in there in a cold period. We chopped all the wood and did lots of things around the place. We had a lot of partying this month I bad he had a good time overhere. Wishing Philip a good trip.

Philip stayed the last September with us. He is calm, easy going and good worker. He has a lot of skills like mechanics knowledge, iron works or wood works. We build a roof, isolated part of the house, and more. It was a really good experience. Thanks Philip
I hope all is well with you

Also in the household he's a great … read more
