What an incredible experience! Easily one of my favorite WP exchanges. I felt so quickly integrated into the winery family, sharing stories and laughter. Kim, Glenda, and Nick are all such wonderful people. The farm work was hard at times but rewarding, I was happy to contribute. I'm definitely walking away stronger than I arrived. I am so thankful for my time with the winery family. I miss you all already! See you soon!

Oh wow :) I was completely adopted by this family, and I learned so much. I truly felt Swiss for 2 weeks. I really recommend this volunteer experience for people with a great sense of humor (they were hilarious), who enjoy local food, and want to live in the mountains. This is one of those volunteering experiences where they gave me much more than I deserved, they really are givers. I wish you the best from my heart, Kim, Nik, and Glenda ❤️

Amazing experience. I am truly grateful to Kim and her family for making me feel so welcome and show us so much about Swiss culture. I learnt a lot, so much that I am definitely going to visit the country again as soon as I can. The work was as expected and the family was also working so we were fully supported and felt like part of team. We were well looked after with plenty of gorgeous food and there's was absolutely nothing lacking. Would recommend this experience 100%.

Living with Kim's family was incredible, a beautiful experience that we highly recommend to anyone who wants to discover Switzerland and enjoy its stunning landscapes and mountains. Both Nick and Glenda welcomed us as part of the family from the very first moment and were always there whenever we needed anything. They also showed us around their region while sharing so much about Switzerland. Without a doubt, it's an experience we will never forget.

This was definitely the best volunteering I ever had. I couldn't be more grateful for all of them, Kim is a visionary, amazing and really funny person, Nick and Glenda always making sure that we had everything we needed, and always given more (showing us a lot of beautiful places, cooking DELICIOUS meals, bringing new and fun experiences for us). They are very funny and generous. I couldn't imagine a better place to stay in Switzerland. This family became my family for the month I lived there, and I bring with me all the kindness I received there ❤️

I had such a wonderful time with Kim, Glenda and Nik, definitely exceeding my expectations! The work was very reasonable (I actually found it quite calming, pruning grapes all day) and it was nice to do it alongside the family - it definitely felt like a team environment. The living area was more spacious than the photos, the food was delicious and I felt like I had even more than what I needed! Best part was spending so much time with the family, I really got to learn about Swiss culture :) thank you Kim, Nik & Glenda for being so welcoming!!!

If you want a home away from home living and working with nice and very friendly people, who will treat you like member of the family, then look no where else 😉 I have learned alot about the culture and farming. You really gave me such beautiful memories for the next years to come! Looking forward to your visit!

This volunteer experience was amazing – 10 out of 10, totally recommended! The family is super kind and welcoming. They make you feel like part of the family and share their culture and traditions with you, which I loved. I only stayed for two weeks, but honestly, I wish I could've stayed way longer. I really enjoyed working in the vineyard and picking blueberries. It was fun, meaningful, and I learned a lot. The food was delicious, and you'll never run out of laughs and great conversations. Super grateful for everything and for the chance to be part of their project. Thank you so much!

We had a wonderful time volunteering with Kim, Nik & Glenda. They were so welcoming, kind and hospitable and made us feel like honoured guests, showing us the Swiss culture & nature, and Glenda was so kind to cook us such delicious meals. The work was so peaceful and enjoyable, I miss it already. This was a heartwarming experience that has taught me so much about how to connect with nature. Cannot recommend enough!
