Description
Hi, we are Toni & Jasmin. I (Jasmin), originally come from Germany. In 2004, we both traveled to Australia & met there in a pub. One year later I moved over to Switzerland. Now we run the Familyfarm of Toni’s father. The farm is located ca. 20 min. out of Lucerne city, situated on a hill with a beautiful view over lake Sempach & our village. There are some hiking trails around & mountains to climb. In wintertime it takes you about an hour, in each direction, to go skiing.
We are expanding the farm & the house. Sometimes there is some painting or creative construction tasks to do. Mainly we are looking for help with all household chores, cleaning, cooking a little gardening and childcare, walking the dog or helping Toni with some farmwork.
If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask us.
We are looking forward to meet you.

I stayed with Jasmin and Toni (and John, the apprentice) for a week and found the experience to be wonderful. As Jasmin is 'very' pregnant at the moment I mainly helped her to nest by cleaning the house so she could relax and concentrate on the important things.

I stayed for 2 weeks to help Jasmin sort out her home before the baby arrives. It was great fun seeing all the changes happen whilst I was there. I painted the baby's bathroom and put together numerous Ikea items - think I am now an expert. Jasmin is very creative and it is amazing to see what she has done with the house so far.

I got sick during that week, and they also take care of me! I'm so lucky that I worked there and meet such good people! It's really comfortable to get along with Toni&Jasmin!
