This was our first workaway project and it was perfect thanks to Ray! We had a lovely time, got to explore nature and the local town.
The tasks were pretty reasonable and my favorite part was walking Sybil (the dog).
Dinners were always fun with Ray! Would definitely like to repeat this experience again.
