During my stay I worked in the kitchen, it was nice to be able to experiment freely in the preparation of desserts, cakes, cookies, bread of different flavors. I shared with people of different nationalities who helped me with practicing English. Susan's accommodation has a family atmosphere that makes it special and welcoming, I would definitely love to return in the future.

Susan was an excellent host, always attentive and responsive to our needs. She was kind and honest with the schedules, always respecting what was agreed upon. The place is cozy and has everything you need. I met many people from other countries and learned a lot from them. Also, this place is quiet, perfect for people like me who enjoy the forest. Thank you, Susan, for everything. You are amazing. God bless you.

My stay was pretty good. I've met volunteers who are supportive with each other. I've explored the Hudson Valley Bridge and it was a fun and refreshing experience! The host was kind. She even ordered food for everyone, which was sweet! Overall, I had a good experience.
