This was my second Worldpacker experience and I couldn't be more happy about my choice. Felix and Sarah built an amazing environment where you truly feel home. Plus the other worldpackers there are amazing, it felt like family and home!!<3 I learned so much during my stay. They give you plenty or opportunities to be busy and explore always making sure you are comfortable. Even spontaneous changes of the work scedule were no problem. I can definetly recommend this place. Always up for an adventure and full of life and wilderness.

We had a very good experience at the host; Felix and Sarah are very attentive, kind, and warm people, as are their children. We felt very welcome, and they allow you to stay longer if you prefer. There are many outdoor activities to do, including swimming, boating, mountain biking, and more. The tasks are not complicated and they try to make them fair for everyone. We only had one complicated situation with another volunteer, but Sarah and Felix were able to resolve everything calmly. It was also a great opportunity to practice English and make new friends, thank you guys!.

I had a great time at the host. Both Felix and Sarah are welcoming and wonderful to chat to. The area itself was stunning and I had the chance to go for hikes up the mountain and surrounding area. I was mainly just doing housekeeping and laundry for the duration of my stay which I didn't really mind. The last week or so was a little stressful but that was more to do with some other Worldpackers that were there and I felt Felix and Sarah handled it to the best of their ability. There are some very cute cats that you will get to meet and some chaotic but loving horses to hang out with aswell:))

Thank you Felix and family for the nice stay we had. It is a very nice family, where art is constantly present, especially through music. We were lucky enough to be invited to musical events, which was a beautiful experience. We were collaborating in the cleaning of the hotel, everything was very pleasant and the conditions were fulfilled. The nature surrounding the place is magnificent, you can go trekking in the mountains, if you are brave you can go into the lake. Nature and music lovers, this place is for you. Thanks for the experience!
