Meet Mary
Trusting, Open minded, Responsible
Out of passion i have converted my parental home for hosting guests to a simple unique village experience.I would like to involve local people into my enterprise and make them known outside.
On a typical day...
I’m a clean person and keep a clean house.
When I host guests...
I’m helpful and hands on. I can show them where to go and help them get there.
