Melina and Maelle are both super young women. They were very helpful during their stay with us. The girls painted fences, cleaned windows, potted up plants and cleaned my kitchen (oh that was wonderful!), among other tasks. They were so helpful in general and good company also. We would surely recommend them to other hosts.

Maëlle and Mélina were a pleasure to host. They initially did some weeding and then I discovered that they loved to paint. They cleaned and prepped several areas for painting and then did a great job painting a trellis, porch steps, some large built in planter boxes and helped me with the restaining of a large deck. We also had some nice games… read more

Maelle and Melina stayed with us for several days. They were a delight to have around. Their help around our home, and especially in the large flower garden that was very over grown with spring weeds, was much appreciated. They were willing to get on with tasks and got lots done.
They communicated well and their English was good enough that we… read more

They were very tolerant of our demanding cats and dogs. We enjoyed learning about their culture, families and travel plans and playing games in the evenings. They… read more
