The Experience

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities. Forest work and farming life, routines and things that suddenly happens. Being a part of the working team and working alone. Different prosjects at the farm needs helping hands in many ways. And we also like the farm to be tidy and kept in order and spend a lot of time on this. Ability to drive tractor and handle chainsaw will be advantage

I feel like living at the farmwas one of the best 6 weeks I've ever had. People are lovely, their family is really friendly and the atmosphere is so warm. I really liked my job and because of that most of the time working didn't even felt like a work. All animals are so cute (especially babysheep and my boy Catos❤️) and I really enjoyed spending time outside. I feel like I learned a lot and one of my favourite things was that even though every day was kinda similar and you had routines what ned to be done, everyday was still unique. I'm so thankful of that experience🩷

Ive been here for 4 weeks. It was so lovely to be here, the views is terrific. The family and the riders are kind and welcoming. It wasnt work that I was used to, so it was a bit hard sometimes. But the time flies by really fast and the horserides are so nice. Its good to get to improve your English, it really helps because you speak it the whole time. I really recommend it if you like nature and especially animals:)

It was a great stay! The nature is stunning, and the family really included me. I enjoyed chatting with June, and sometimes she took us on nice trips after work. She also let us use the jacuzzi and stay in the Airbnb. June has a strong personality, and her humor is direct, so don't take it personally. Anders is kind and funny. I had to leave early due to personal reasons, but overall, it was a lovely experience. I wouldn't recommend this stay for vegetarians or vegans as it's a farm with its own meat production. There are no buses on weekends. Work was physical, often over 5 hours.

I had a really good time at the farm!! June and Anders are very welcoming and friendly. They always made sure I was having a good time and were flexible with the working hours. The nature is truly amazing and the people are so kind. I loved to work with the animals and all the horses are the sweetest. I would definitely recommend coming if your a horse lover or just love the nature in general. The city is also quite close and easy to get to :) All in all it was a really nice experience!

We had an amazing time at the farm. June and Anders were welcoming and very friendly. We had a lot of fun together. There was a great variety in the work depending on the weather and season. I especially enjoyed working with the horses. June and Anders are very flexible with the working hours. This place is a must if you enjoy being with animals and in nature. There are a lot of great hiking trails and the city is quite close. Would absolutely recommend!
