I had an amazing experience at Danielle's! Everyone was very kind and welcoming, I was given ample time to explore the countryside as well as complete my work. The work was fulfilling and fun, and I was able to practice my french a lot, but Danielle also made sure I was comfortable and able to speak English if I needed/wanted to. All around this is a beautiful and unforgettable experience, thank you Danielle!

My stay at the farm's house was lovely and a great experience. Everyone was very friendly, working with the animals was fun and their animals are great. The location is also good, close to the city and yet quiet in the countryside. At the beginning I had a few problems with communication, but after a while I was able to solve the problems. the farm was very flexible with the days off and it was easy to talk to her about organising the work. I had a great experience, learnt new things and can therefore recommend her.

I had a great time at the farm's house! Everyone was very nice and helpful with any problems. the farm has great horses and a beautiful home near the woods. I enjoyed working on the farm and helping with the kids. I had a lot of freedom when to do the tasks as well. You can always meet a lot of different people at her house as well:)

I had a great time at Danièles place. She is a very friendly, welcoming person and normally you'll find her kitchen crowded with different people of all age, which gave me opportunity to learn to survive with my poor French skills and was a lot of fun. I fell in love with all horses and other furry friends right from the start. The amount of work varied on the numbers of volunteers, but was very fair and never to much, even in times I did it alone. Sometimes I would have preferred clearer division of responsibilities, but except for this everything was good and I highly recommend this host!

No hay palabras para describir lo increíble que es este lugar, hermoso disfrutar del clima; el río, el bosque ; la escuela de equitación está cerca pero lejos de la ciudad: hay 2 supermercados y la avenida, y en diez minutos caminando ya estás en otro mundo. La casa excelente para estar muy a gusto. the farm es un ser extraordinario es una líder innata, rodeada de gente que la quiere, su familia son excelentes seres. the farm te brinda toda la confianza para respeta tiempos y descanso. Thiers un lugar para llevar siempre en el corazón. Siempre agradecida.
