The host is very friendly and had a private room and It is a very quiet place perfect for resting and it is also a good option if you want to go to Paris because it is 1 hour away

Thank you so much, Paula!
It was a real pleasure to welcome you. I’m very happy to hear that you enjoyed the quiet atmosphere and had time to rest — that’s exactly what I want my guests to feel.
And yes, being close to Paris is a great advantage!
Wishing you many more peaceful and inspiring adventures ahead.

Overall, I think Thatiana could be more organized when it comes to managing volunteers. She got confused about my arrival date, and I had to insist several times for her to confirm me on the platform, even after I had already started volunteering, she only did it after I pushed a few times. In general, it was a good experience. The house is located near Paris and the accommodations are good. However, I had to share a bed with another volunteer who was there. The work was okay, but many times we had to complete a lot of tasks in a short amount of time.

Thanks for your feedback,Sara. I’m still adjusting to the platform and prefer confirming volunteers only when I’m sure I can host, as I want to avoid cancellations.You contacted me urgently via WhatsApp saying you had nowhere to sleep, and I accepted you out of empathy.The room had a bed and a sofa-bed you chose to share the bed with her.Tasks were simple (cleaning litter, sweeping).A bit more initiative would have made everything smoother and less last-minute. All the best !

I spent 24 days in this place and overall, I have good memories from my time here. Tachiana was very kind to me and invited me several times for dinner, for which I am truly grateful. And I had a great time with Remi and Sintcia and their cute cats. Also, the private sleeping space and good food were always available. Alongside all these positive aspects, she asked me to work beyond the hours that we discussed, sometimes up to 7- 8 hours a day or ignoring my days off. Some tasks were also extremely dangerous and difficult, such as cleaning a mirror while standing on an unstable ladder!

Dear Naria,
I truly appreciate the time you spent with us and was delighted to welcome you into my home. I’m surprised by your comments regarding the working hours, as I recall that any adjustments to your schedule were made to compensate for the days you did not work. In fact, it was you who suggested replacing a day off by working 2 hours of cleaning instead.
That being said, if you wish to continue as a backpacker, improving your cleaning skills might be beneficial.
