Staying with Julianne and Terry was super interesting. I not only got to know how to make healthy dog food and juice, also got chances to gain knowledge about health eating. Besides asking for daily help, they were always checking my need to explore the city myself and had other kind of fun. Terry showed me around a cool town named Ferndale nearby and Juli introduced her friends from dance to me. They are both nice and considerable, and the whole experience has been enjoyable. But I recommend it more if you can drive and have an international license since its a motor city.

I unfortunately didn't get to meet Julianne because I was turned away by immigration. An officer at the airport can deny entry and he wasn't a fan of the worldpackers concept so they sent me home. Julianne was extremely nice and supportive throughout the whole time and I am sad I didn't get to meet her.

This was my first volunteer with Worldpacker and I'm very pleasure with Julianne and Terry, both are very kind people, they help me to improve my English and I felt in family there. If you are looking for a experience quiet, learn about the culture and try new flavors and very healthy, I recommend this volunteer. Julianne and family thank you for the hospitality and your desire to show me new things in Michigan, I hope to return to very soon. Very happy with this beautiful cultural exchange experience. I love Violet's matcha too, thanks for all ✨. Miska and Mac are the best dogs 🫶

Amazing time! I spent three weeks with Julianne and her family and I truly wish I could've stayed longer. They made me feel extremely welcomed, inclued me in their family activities and made sure I explored the city as much as I could. Julianne is a very passionate woman about health and veganism, I was able to learn so much about it in such a beautiful and truthful way. Julianne respected everything she said on her profile or to me personnaly when we were chatting. I really hope for her to get amazing travelers in the future and for me to see her and her family again. Thank you Julianne!!
