I had a wonderful time with Valentin and his girlfriend Jiewen, they're lovely and always available :) The house and the home are so comfortable and there is everything you could need to have a great stay. Varen is a beautiful Swiss town close to the Alps with a lot of immaculate nature and hiking spots. Totally recommend!

Staying with Valentin and his girlfriend Jiewen was an absolute blast. I had a great time. Both of them are super kind and welcoming and it felt immediately like working in a team. I got to learn so much interesting things about Switzerland and Swiss clocks and also explored the surrounding areas. The work was very easy, just as agreed upon and straight forward. I would really recommend this stay to everyone! Thank you Valentin and Jiewen!!!! <3
