Deixado pelo Workawayer (Bruna) para o anfitrião
My time with Virginie was simply incredible. I was warmly welcomed and felt at home! She was extremely patient with my basic level of French and I was able to improve a lot practising English with her! As I didn't have much work at the time, I helped out around the house and we focussed on conversation! I was able to have time to myself to paint
… read more and organise my life.
We exchanged a lot of experiences and great laughs! She's a really special person, polite, funny and lovely to have around! Sartre is also a lovely dog and great company!
I'll never forget the memorable moments I was able to enjoy, the great French recipes she made sure to cook with a lot of love and dedication and the amazing places I got to know! I hope to see you again soon!
I will never be able to express my immense my gratitude for the 2 weeks I spent at her home!

Bruna is a very pleasant young woman, lively, intelligent, very polite and very easy to receive.
Bruna immediately felt at ease, she loves dogs and my dog Sartre was very happy by her side.
There wasn't much work to be done at that time. But Bruna helped with the cleaning and cooking.
She cooked delicious Brazilian recipes for me and my

Bruna managed to help me progress in English vocabulary through play and I am very grateful to her.
It was a real pleasure to receive Bruna.

Virginie was such a warm, sweet and kind person, she really made me feel like home from the first day. I enjoyed cooking Korean food and introducing her to them and I really loved all her cooking as well, which were all super nutritious and healthy! There weren't many sunny days for outdoor explorations but I really enjoyed the walks with Sartre

I improved my French talking with Virginie in French everyday too! The room and bathroom in her lovely house was super clean, cozy and comforting. Thank you for such a wonderful experience! Miss you two a lot alreaady!Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.

A great meeting! Chloe is a young woman who is very easy to receive. Chloe is very well mannered and always has a smile.
She cooks wonderfully. A real pleasure for me to discover Korean cuisine. Chloe taught me how to cook Korean and I even managed to make some of her recipes myself after she left.
Chloe accompanied me on a few dog walks. The

Chloe immediately adapted into my home. Chloe is an independent person, she also had a lot of work online for her classes. This was perfect for me with working at the store.
The meeting with Chloe was very pleasant and I would be happy if we could meet again afterwards. We still have many beautiful things to share together.

The five days I spent with Virginie were pure pleasure. She is a generous host, who planned each aspect of my stay thoughtfully. Every meal she made me was delicious. Every walk we took with Sartre, her dog, was beautiful - since we both appreciate nature, she found a range of routes in forests, local parks and green spaces.
Virginie also noted
… read more that I'm interested in travelling more widely in France and kindly took me to the coast for the day, visiting some pretty villages. Another day we took a self-guided walking tour of Lille, which was so interesting. I was fortunate that the dates of my stay coincided with a quieter period in her work, as she can't always spend so much time with her guests.
On the subject of work, it was amazing to watch Virginie at her porcelaine painting and to share in the experience by making a small creation of my own (with lots of help!). Again, an example of her generosity.
Finally, knowing that I love to speak French and engage with French people, Virginie arranged for me to meet and spend time with her close friend and neighbour. This was a real pleasure, for the three of us to share meals and trips together.
Virginie asked for very little from me in return. Our opportunities to speak English were a little limited, as she finds it a struggle to be sure of her words. I think we enjoyed our conversations in French so much, it was hard to remember that I was supposed to be there to help her practice English! In any event, it was a friendship that felt easy and natural and I hope we'll stay in touch.
I should also just add that Virginie's home is charming - large, comfortable and full of books and creativity. I loved my bedroom and the chimes of the nearby carillon.Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.

Deixado pelo Workawayer (Hava) para o anfitrião
I had a wonderful stay with Virginie. Her and Sartre made me feel welcome right away. We enjoyed many delicious dinners and lunches together.

Hava is a very pleasant Workawayer. Hava immediately integrated into my home, she found her bearings very quickly. Hava was very independent as agreed together due to my busy season at work.
Hava also had a lot of online work for her classes so that was perfect. The relationship with Sartre, my Swiss Shepherd, was made immediately. Hava also got

My English is really bad and Hava had only studied French for a year at university, but it didn't prevent us from finding interesting topics for discussion.
It is with pleasure that I would receive Hava again if she wants to come back.
Deixado pelo Workawayer (Rachel) para o anfitrião
I could not be more grateful to have stayed with Virginie! She was incredibly welcoming and patient, especially with helping me with French.

Her

We had great conversations, and thanks to her and her daughters, my French really improved, and so did my understanding of French life and culture. Virginie is great at making conversation, which is really helpful when you're learning a language! Her house is in a very convenient location, too, I was able to go to Lille as I pleased, and it was easy to get to Paris from there. I couldn't have asked for a better host, truly-- she made me feel very comfortable and at home, and I learned so much.Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.

Virginie is very kind and included me immediately in her household and activities. When she was working in her shop the door was always open for me to come in and chat with her.

I regret that but would have appreciated a more open communication since she did not mention anything about not feeling at ease for quite some time and then threw me off guard which, in turn, made me feel uncomfortable.
