The Experience

We want to bring a beautiful old farmhouse back to life, so we want to create a 3800 square meter garden, you can also come with a camper. We would like guests who will help us with the renovation, who would like to take care of the household and the cats, others who like to work in the garden. I would also like someone who can put together a motorcycle that is disassembled, there are a variety of things to do. Jardy the Patou loves to be brushed

Jürgen and Nicole are really nice people to be around, they were very respectful and explained all my tasks when i asked them, the patience was really worth it, I'll definitely miss trying german food made by Nicole LOL, and also the cute little pets they have, the environment was really comfortable and the neighborhood was so nice, I definitely recommend it! ;)

Thou Jurgen's tough face he is such a funny and sweet man, he made sure our stay was good, but he really needs a hand in the kitchen when Nicole is not around haha, she, who's such a fun and lovable woman, always made sure we were comfortable and well received, witch we always were. Such amazing persons. The work is not always easy, but it's always good and rewarding, having nature all around makes everything chill.

I had an amazing experience. We stayed for a month, which gave us the chance to truly connect with the hosts and immerse ourselves in the culture—just as we had hoped. We learned so much, not only about local traditions but also through developing a wide range of skills. Although the house is still undergoing repairs, everything is coming together beautifully, and I felt grateful to be part of the process. The hosts are some of the most wonderful people I've ever met, and I'll miss them deeply—along with the house and their lovely pets.

I had the time of my life in this volunteering!! Jurgen and Nicole were the kindest people I've met, they're super nice and welcoming. They're very flexible and explaining with the tasks. I helped mostly in the garden since is spring. We learned a lot from them, about gardening and restoring/building. We also connected with nature and the germany culture. I even learnt a little bit of german! I already miss the place, this was a life changing experience for me which I'm really grateful for! I would really recommend this volunteer and I hope to visit in the future!
