The guest house are nice people and flexibility is given. I sometimes didn't really feel welcome tho as they keep it very much on a employee and employer basis more than really integrating you into the family. If you don't have a problem with that it'll work but I would discuss the sleeping situations before arrival

My experience in laval, Montreal, was wonderful, it was my first volunteer and the guest house were very patient with me, my English was terrible, but they always tried to explain me, I am very grateful to them, because they welcomed me into their home. Thank you for the delicious meals, moments and learning. I will never forget this wonderful experience.

The guest house, Rebeca and his little kid were welcoming and kind. They are very flexible, and it is easy to organized with them your free days. Although some days were a little bit large (normally you work more than 5 hours but you have more days off), they comply with the agreed hours. The tasks are different, so normally it could be entertainging and you learn a lot in the shop. House working is sometimes more boring. The good thing is that you have an apartment for you, sometimes you share it with other volunteers, so it is very fun.

It was an incredible experience. the guest house are very kind, they receive you very well and make you feel comfortable in their home, the place they assign you to sleep is very comfortable because you have your own space. The tasks they make you do are different every day and that makes it more entertaining, also the schedule is flexible and can also change. One of the things we liked the most was going to their cabin, it is quite an experience. We highly recommend the hosts.
