I was very welcomed by Christopher in his home, his house is beautiful and comfortable and the tasks are peaceful, in contact with animals and nature. Chris, it was a pleasure to meet you!

I highly recommend the experience with Chris and his family! The house is in the English countryside, in a region of great peace and tranquility, ideal for anyone seeking a more rural life. Despite my beginner English, Chris helped me a lot and we were able to communicate well. He and his family are lovely and made me feel welcome. The only negative point is the location, in front of a road, which makes it difficult to go out on foot and explore the surroundings; that somewhat limits the experience. I loved these days with them and, if I have the opportunity, I hope to return!

It was wonderful to spend these days with Chris and his family! They are lovely and gave me a very warm welcome. During my stay, I was able to enjoy a house all to myself, something I needed at that moment. The city is beautiful, peaceful, and exudes a lot of peace. The job consisted of preparing the houses for Airbnb guests, including cleaning, making the beds, arranging the furniture, windows and floors, and starting laundry. It was a great experience!
