I stayed for 3 weeks and had a great time! I got to meet lots of different folk and now have friends from all over the world. The work was never too hard, and I had plenty of free time to explore the beautiful area or go for a dip in the lake. I was well fed and always felt comfortable, thanks for giving me the opportunity to stay there!
