I worked as an au pair, and I loved the farm! I met amazing people and visited beautiful places. The only thing I would keep in mind (specifically for Au Pairs!) is that the children ONLY speak Dutch. This can make communication difficult at times for non-Dutch speakers, so it is important to have a lot of patience. Regardless, the children are very sweet! Shift times are respected, and you have plenty of time to explore the forest and NL. I would definitely recommend the experience to any hardworking, positive person, especially if you love animals and nature!

This was my first Worldpackers, and I am blown away at how well it went. I feel endlessly grateful to have met the people I did, and spend so much peaceful time with animals and in nature. Naduah was so welcoming and always kind. They provided lots of food, SUP boards, bikes, horseback rides and more. I will remember this experience. <333 thank you so much I miss it already :))

My time at the farm was even better than I expected—I extended my stay because I didn't want to leave! Naduah is such a kind and understanding host who really cares about the comfort of the volunteers. She even made sure I was able to attend church! The hours are exactly as agreed upon and the tasks are clearly outlined so you know what to do and when. There was always enough food and the living quarters were cozy. You have the opportunity to ride bikes and horses, swim, paddleboard and explore the forest nearby! I made friendships that will certainly last for years to come. Book the trip!😁

The farm is truly a special place! I had so much fun working with the horses and animals–it was so nice to be able to engage myself in rewarding physical tasks every day. Naduah was also an AMAZING host–she is both incredibly kind and proactive. I felt so well taken care of, with all the groceries provided, the cozy apartment, and all the available activities on the farm. Cannot recommend this place enough. So much love for the animals, the farm, and all the people I met! <3

My time at the camping was such a beautiful experience, not only because of the landscape and nature surrounding it, but also the people. Many of the girls that I met here I plan to see again, they had such an impact on my life and I truly love every single one of them. Naduah is so incredibly organised and ensures everyone's is taken care of at all times. I found the work to be very fair, and there were many opportunities to bike/explore the area. Doe doei! I'll miss every single one of you!
