Tereza was awesome and a big help she completed all tasks I needed her to do, plus more. She did a good job mowing my lawn and my invalid friend's lawn. We had lots of conversations and lots of alone time that suited us both. She worked to a high standard and was keen to help with everything.

We had a wonderful time with Mary. She was very welcoming and it was a joy to spend time with her and hear her stories.

I had a great week at Mary's house. Mary is a very funny person and always has good stories to tell. Every evening you are treated to a delicious meal and she knows how to reward you if she has enjoyed your work. The setting is incredible, a 360° view of nature, mountains and land. Thank you Mary for this week of sharing and exchange.
