I had an incredible experience. Geo and Guile were so warm and welcoming, and I felt so immediately invited into their home and restaurant. They were also so accommodating when I had family issues and had to leave early. I loved Puebla and loved working at Cosme Tortas. I hope to come back!

The work is definitely doable. 25 hours a week is perfect en you have enough time to explore the city and more. Guilebaldo en Georgina are 2 super nice hosts. There are no regrets for staying at this place. I had an amazing time!

Guile and Georgi are two lovely and very welcoming persons that always invite you to go out with them. Work in the kitchen is very easy and a lot of fun and you have plenty of time to visit puebla and try all the delicious food.

My partner and I stayed with Geo & Guile for 2 & 1/2 weeks. Geo & Guile are so welcoming, friendly and informative. They took us out multiple times to try local Poblano foods at their favourite spots in town (all very yummy!) Work was as advertised, I worked in the kitchen which was great for me learning all the local foods (& the Spanish words for most foods). Geo is a great chef & even shared some of her yummy recipes ☺️ Accomodation is comfortable and shared kitchen was sufficient. Overall would highly recommend to someone, who is looking to fully immerse yourself in the Poblano culture.
