I had an amazing time at this Worldpackers. Sue is a lovely woman that will make you feel so supported in whatever you need. She knows how to communicate and is very welcoming into her space. The two kitties are the most adorable, well-behaved kittens ever. They are so cuddly and nice to everyone. You will fall in love with them. Tasks are very manageable and everything occurred as agreed upon. The house is in a very beautiful location with a lovely nature view. I 100% recommend this Worldpackers, and I would love to come back some day :)

I had a wonderful experience at this place! Sue is so kind, sweet, and attentive! The work and schedule are easy, everything is very organized and flexible, and she always recommended places I could go near town and easy ways to get there. 🤩 It's a very relaxing place. Sue's house has a beautiful view, so I always woke up to it in the morning with an amazing view in the background. She has two beautiful kittens that I miss 🥰 I recommend this volunteering 100%. I always felt at home and I improved a lot my English 😊

I had an amazing experience staying with Sue, she is very personable and she is a great conversationalist! She was flexible when it came to our working hours as well as scheduling days off and she also helped us many times with finding the best trains to take whenever we wanted to explore the surrounding cities and towns. the home is a beautiful little town with a nice pub just down the street from Sue's house. I would definitely recommend this experience for other travelers as it was lovely staying with Sue and her kittens.

Our time with Sue and her lovely cats was amazing. Her home and the village of the home are beautiful. She was kind to us from the start of our stay, & made sure that we were always comfortable. It was really nice to spend time with her & to meet some of her loved ones. We had fun hanging out in the local pub, I would definitely recommend other volunteers to drop by. Sue was very flexible when it came to schedules, and she even helped us get to nearby train stations on our days off. Overall, I would absolutely recommend this experience to others volunteers. Thanks Sue for your hospitality 💜

Sue was my first host on WorldPackers and a perfect one at that. She was very accommodating and very flexible with tasks that needed to be done. Unfortunately, due to no fault of anyone, the weather played a big part in stopping us being able to get some tasks done. On our days off, Sue was also super helpful with recommendations on where to go and what to see, making a full itinerary for us to follow. Very much appreciated!! Overall, a very wholesome week an Overall, a very wholesome week and a huge thank you to Sue & family/friends for welcoming me into your home!
