My experience with Tono, Demo and Simeon was truly special! Tono and Demo are kind, professional and incredibly attentive. From the first day to the last, they always made me feel welcome and part of the family. Simeon is a the home, curious and energetic kid, always ready for a new adventure, so be prepared to have lots of fun with him! I stayed for two months and everything was amazing. I highly recommend this experience. I came as a volunteer and left with wonderful memories and three amazing friends. ❤️

Demo and Tono are wonderful hosts, who respected our hours and organised things (accommodation, transport, food) excellently. Bulgaria is an amazing country - the locals are kind and the landscapes beautiful. We had an amazing work:life balance so could experience this all and visit closeby Greece. Simeon is a child with lots of potential, and energy! I think its important to note that at times this role is best described as a nanny rather than friend, but the parents are always around to help. This trip is best suited for pairs/couples and I'd definitely recommend it.

We had the opportunity to stay with Demo and Tono for two months, we worked with Simeon a very curious child, he wants to play all the time so be prepared 😉.
We suggest to have a some experience with children before coming here.
Anyway, Demo and Tono are wonderful people, they helped us when we needed and took amazing care of us under all aspects.
They are very kind, so if you do your job you will be rewarded.

If you are considering this experience, you can absolutely write to us for some more info .

Thanks again Demo and Tono, you gave us a summer full of memories 🫶🏼

We had such a special time in Bulgaria! Demo and Tono were super kind and generous, willing to be flexible and ready to help us out to ensure we had the best experience possible. Simeon is a very smart and energetic kid- so I would recommend doing this trip as a pair, and getting in touch with previous volunteers to get a good idea of his passions and his personality! It was also so useful to have access to a car on this trip and we saw so much beauty in Bulgaria and Greece. Thank you Demo and Tono 🤗

Demo and Tono were amazing! They always were willing to do whatever to make sure you have a good time! The accommodations and hours are exactly what we agreed upon. Simeon is a loving kid with alot of energy. He is very active and in return its imperative that you are just as well. Very one was so kind and it was exactly what was agreed upon.
