Thank you so much Ioanna for this experience. The children are adorable and you fall in love with them immediately, Ioanna gives you a schedule that is flexible in case you want to travel you can, but let her know in advance to organize it. the only thing is there is no room, it's a bunk bed in the living room which is the common area where the children and everyone play, eat, etc... so you don't have privacy, even so, this is a good place if you want to travel more because you have a lot of free time

Thanks to Ioanna for this experience in her house, I was able to travel and get to know Brussels, share with the children and also have several free days a week to get to know Brussels. Please note: there is no shared room for volunteers, it is a bunk bed in the living room (which is also the kitchen) so there is no privacy. You will have to do some cleaning because there is a lot of mess and dirt in the house. On a few occasions the host had comments and attitudes that made me feel very uncomfortable. Anyway, thank you very much to Ioanna, Sakis and the babies for everything, see you soon ❤️

Thank you for your feedback! Im surprised to hear that you were uncomfortable at some moments during your stay, since you did not mention any issue to me and behaved as everything is ok :) I clearly responded immediately to every request of yours (such as flexible days off for your visits etc) so I do not understand why you would not be open to me about anything that could have bothered you :) Maybe speaking openly is a point of yours that you could improve in the future :)
And yes, as we discussed since the beginning, helping to clean up the space where the kids eat and play-during your shifts - is part of the exchange and you had gladly agreed.
See you soon!

I had a nice stay in Brussels with Ioanna's family and the children are adorable. Ioanna is a great person who is always there to help you with whatever you need, just communicate and everything will be fine.

Well, I actually do not have words to say thank you for Ioanna. She open the door of her house to me and trust me to care about their two cute and smart children. She was always kind, generous and with a beautiful smile everyday. She is a model of a powerful woman and emanate joy and good energy. She always try to help as much as possible and also advise us with all the places to visit. Thank you for making me feel part of the family, thank you for all delicious food you cooked. I will miss you all so much, it was hard to say goodbye, you're a special family. I hope comeback in the future. 💙

I enjoyed this experience, I could know better the Belgium culture in my free time, Ioanna and Sakis are flexible with the schedules, to care of the children require responsibility but I didn't have any problem with them, I'll miss Achilleas and Leonidas (babies). Maybe the space in the house could be small for some people but for me was ok.
