Eventhough my stay was short, l feel we got close and could talk like old friends. Nikkie is a gracious lady who wasn't comfortable to tell me what to do, so I was initiative which was welcomed by her. She was appreciative of my work which felt nice, and we had a good laugh with her rating me with gold stars. Taking care of the dogs was easy as … read more

Zara sadly only stayed a few days due to family circumstances but she fitted in straight away. She is a gregarious person, interesting and interested, and works very hard. She cleaned my house from top to bottom! I'm sure we will stay in touch. I'd very much recommend her to other hosts.

Sure is a lovely, decent guy, who's a good teacher. On first day he trusted me with a noisy petrol strimer which at first was scary but by the next day I got the hang of it because Sture was keen to teach me, he was patient and following the school of teaching how to fish and not giving fish, but he was helping me whenever I needed. He made sure … read more

Zara is a woman to trust. If she start a project, she finish it with high quality. If I give her a task she fullfill it. She is very keen to work and "do right".
She soon gets popular among my friends because of her laughters and humour.
Zara also need time for her own, and often prefere to have her time off for herself.
Zara is a perfect … read more

Zara was a most valuable addition to our large Workaway team during the very busy month of June -22. Her exquisite Persian cooking stunned us time and time again, so much so that the rest of us decided unanimously to exalt her to our Supreme Chef of the Household and, subsequently, to steer clear of the kitchen area a couple of hours prior to … read more

I had a good feeling about Pelle based on his excellent reviews on his workaway profile which was confirmed with my first impression after our introductory video call, but it all got better after staying in his place with his two wonderful daughters and 3 other workawayers and his 2 friends. Even though it was many of us, everyone got along and it … read more

Zara helped us excellently in the household, dog sitting, weeding and watering in the garden as well as some reconstruction works. We enjoyed her Persian cooking capabilities. She is a down-to-earth person, integrated immediatelly in our family and we loved the communication with Zara on various subjects.
We can recommend Zara to other hosts … read more

Great experience with wonderful people. I was nervous as this was my first experience but I got a very good first impression on video call and when I arrived they made me feel home right away. They were kind, caring, generous, patient,... OK I stop before turning the review to a love letter, but they were everything I wished for and more. A very … read more
