The time with Fridus and Roswhita was incredibly beautiful!!🤗 They are such kind-hearted people with such big hearts. It was really fun helping them prepare for their big flea market. There was always something to laugh about, and no matter how stressful it got at times, there was always mutual respect 😇 The experience as a Worldpacker with Fridus and Roswhita was absolutely worth it, and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to take a break from the stress of everyday life. Thank you for letting me stay with you!☺️

Thank you, Roswitha and Fridus, for welcoming me with open arms!🔅 I arrived during a very exciting time, there was a big celebration to be prepared. I was trusted with a big variety of tasks. From squeezing orange juice (looots of oranges) to riding on the tractor shovel! Fridus always has lots of exciting stories to tell, and Roswitha is a warm-hearted woman and an impressive artist. The time ended with the big Easter celebration where we could see our work paying off! I wish you all tall the best for your well deserved retirement! And if you're ever in Bavaria, you are more than welcome!

We really enjoyed our time here! Fridus and Roswitha made us feel very welcome when we arrived and always made sure we had everything we needed. The work was very varied but fun, and we had lots of down time to enjoy the nature. We hope they enjoy their retirement and their new house :)

Thank you Roswitha and Fridus for this experience. We wish you a wonderful retirement, happiness and rest after giving your all in your restaurant. You deserve it!
