Maria called me #redacted# Pushed to work 7 hours per day and said if there is something that I don't like she can give me a ride to the nearest city tmrw. The same ride she also promised another volunteer. But to earn it she told him to clean first, so he left on foot.

Ana is an amazing woman. She is a role model for me and has crafted an aspirational experience. She has allowed me to use my potential fully and I was able to spend magical moments with such mesmerizing creatures as Akhal Teke and other horses as well. My favorites were Abuelo, Chicho and Dragon.
Thank you for hosting me. It felt like being part… read more

Sean is very kind and interesting person with ample life experience. I enjoyed working in the garden and spending time in the midst of woods. I was relaxing and gave me a time to contemplate. I really likes Sean's vegetarian pizza, I might be my favourite type of pizza from now on. Thank you for sharing your home with me and wish you all the best.… read more

Natalka stayed with us for 4 weeks. She's easy to have around, took care of herself and did her own thing outside of work hours, is intelligent, hard-working, and did all tasks happily. She stacked 15 face cords of wood and spent a lot of time with our 3-year-old kids, who loved her and miss her already.
