Laura is a very kind and empathetic host. She was always checking in to make sure everything was going well with our stay and the tasks we were helping with. We stayed exactly as we had expected, in the tent in the backyard, which was cozy, comfortable. As for the tasks, even though they could be tiring at times, Laura organized and distributed them really well, so it never felt overwhelming. Overall, it was a great balance between work and rest, and we're really grateful for the experience!

Volunteering with Laura was a truly rewarding experience. She is an incredible, welcoming, and always attentive host. She even gave us lifts into town whenever it fit her schedule and consistently made sure both the facilities and we were comfortable. The work was very flexible in terms of hours and tasks. The focus is genuinely on helping Laura with what's needed, and the tasks varied from gardening to house cleaning. She always respected our limits and was open to clear, honest communication. I highly recommend this opportunity. Not only is Laura a great person to work with, but it's
