Program Details

We look for someone willing to participate in our rural community and in our project. We don't need a full time dedication, just some willingness to help. Knowledge in gardening will be appreciated as well as a previous contact with cattle.
As hosts, we will help you with anything you need and provide you with accommodation, food and an electric bike to move around. We can also drive you to the main city with us when we have to go there.

Activities & Shift

Our day starts at 8 am, you can join us then or later, depending on your preferences. We will be feeding the little lambs in the morning and late in the afternoon, preparing crops in the morning and harvesting and taking care of the garden during the day.
We then attend our small hospitality business, where you may be asked to do some light cleaning or to prepare occasionally breakfast for our guests (note that on winter months there usually are very very few guests).
You can take part in the activities that you feel comfortable with. We will be providing tips and a small training if needed.

Rules

Self-respect, respect for nature and animals
