+1 AirPair. I'm one of the "experts" on there and I helped people during Feb/March to get some extra $$$ for the wedding/honeymoon coming up at the end of this month.
Jonothan and the team have been extremely accommodating and helpful. The airpair clients are pretty friendly and doing it over Google Hangouts is a stroke of genius. The client can choose to make the video available publicly, which might help out other people too! Just a brilliant system.
