Volunteering with this family is a wonderful experience. There were many different tasks to do at their Lakeside business. Helping with rentals of kayaks, paddleboards, pedal boats and jet ski. Cleaning, boats and docks. Fortunately, I have a lot of boating experience so I was able to do some pontoon boat tours in the bay. I was volunteering during a very busy holiday week, so the days were a lot more than six hours sometimes. But then the second week the family took me on their mini vacation to the ocean and were very generous in showing me parts of the local area. A really lovely experience

I had a great time at the guest house with Christian, Jeimy, and their family! They were very kind and welcoming. I enjoyed the work because it was different each day, so I got to da variety of tasks. The home cooked meals were amazing too! Christian and Jeimy make you feel like part of the family.

I spent 2 weeks with the house team and it has been a rewarding experience. It's not just about volunteering; it's also about getting to know another culture, socializing and learning about life and the customs of another country. I would totally recommend it
