Volunteer on a dairy farm near Luzern
Description
We are a young-ish couple who live in a large farm house in a small (tiny) town in Switzerland. Urs is a dairy farmer who just recently gave up his office job to work on the farm full-time. Urs bought the farm a few years ago, but his dad Franz, still works on it almost full-time as well. He does enjoy some free time to hike and go mountaineering in the Swiss Alps though.
I (Nadja) work as a Marketing assistant and after a long day at the office I'm happy to come home and enjoy the beautiful view of the mountains. I love the peaceful feeling of the countryside and think it's the perfect balance to the hectic work life we all live.
Franz and Emilie (Urs' mom) live in a small, new chalet near the main farm house. If you stay with us, you'll surely get to have the pleasure of visiting them for a meal from time to time. Although Franz and Emilie do not speak any English, they are always very eager to learn and will love to hear all about your traveling experiences.
