Overall I had a really amazing time and ended up getting to have small trips on weekends that they helped coordinate for me from a relative that had time and lived nearby. Hege and her mother are both so nice and welcoming, I had no trouble settling in. This was my first time on a farm so I went in knowing it was going to be a huge learning experience and some tough work! If you apply, you should know there's going to be some days you work pretty hard, but those days were more rare than I expected. Some days were actually pretty short and not intensive at all. Hoping I'll be back!
