I had an amazing time in Germany, this experience taught me so much about what it takes to renovate a house and how much work Jurgen and Nichole really do put in to the house! They did such an amazing job at making sure I got a good view on Germany with the food, culture and the area itself is gorgeous! Jurgen, and Nichole are really such beautiful people they were so kind and easy my whole time there! The work and schedule was so simple. Nichole was an amazing cook! Jurgen was an amazing teacher! I hope it aligns in my future to come and visit again soon!! Thank you!

Jürgen and Nicole are such beautiful people and my experience with them was amazing. I had the opportunity to be immersed in their culture and knew stunning places. The house is huge, and you will always find something interesting to do. We had the opportunity to try traditional German dishes that were tasteful. The work was good, and the schedules were respected accordingly, and it's always different. I would recommend this experience if you would like to have fun surrounded by nature, spend time learning while working, and cuddle Jardy, who is adorable. I enjoyed the time we spent together!

My experience was just amazing. Jürgen and Nicole were extremely kind and welcoming. The tasks were varied, and free time as well as working hours was always respected. Additionally, Jürgen has done so many things to keep us motivated. The house is so big, and the surroundings are full of nature, which gives the place a peaceful atmosphere. Complemented with the tenderness of Jardy and the cats. Additionally, I had the opportunity to learn about German culture, language, and food (Nicole is an amazing cook). I'd definitely come back if I had the chance and highly recommend the experience.
