Stay on a farm - close to Sydney, the ski fields and the beach

Area: Luzern/ Zentralschweiz (Lucern)

Hi, we are Toni & Jasmin. I originally come from Germany. Some years ago, we seperately traveled to Australia & met there in a pub. One year later I moved over to Switzerland. And now, 7 years later, Toni runs the dairy farm/ livestock of his father in the vicinity of Lucern. The farm is located ca. 20 min. out of Lucern 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, it would be great for us to have some help. The work depends on season and projekts. Mainly there is work in and around the house/ garden. Occasionally there is some work in the barn. Yearround there is a agriculture trainee with us. We both like travelling, but it get`s harder & harder to find some time for that. So now we are looking forward to see you around here :-)

Area: Malaga Andalucia

Hello, we are Brian and Barbara. We retired from our hectic life in the UK in 2003 and came to live on this dilapidated almond farm in a beautiful valley, 35 minutes from Malaga airport. We brought with us various animals, cats, dogs a rabbit and our collection of ducks, chickens, geese and turkeys. Since then we have lost some of them, but gained many more including 3 horses. We made many improvements to the property when we first arrived including installing electricity, drains and water as well as turning what was a four-roomed empty building into our now nice home. We did pretty well all of this ourselves. We continue to work on the place improving and updating. Projects for the future are building a stone wall and creating an area where we are able to foster abandoned dogs waiting for a home. Another project is to clear a further area of land of rocks and scrub so we can plough it and sow seed to produce good forage for the now 3 rescue horses. There is always a list of jobs big and small, inside and out, that need doing.

Area: Coimbra and Center

In 1998 we - Hans and Irene - left The Netherlands and became the proud owners of a campsite in Portugal. It is an unique outpost in the centre of Portugal. It is located in the heart of the Costa da Prata, the region with its diversified cultural and natural beauty. We have opted for a more responsible form of tourism that places great emphasis on respect for the country, its inhabitants and its culture. Over the years we have tried to give our campsite its own identity, which is very different from the chaotic beach campsites where you trip over the numerous tent pegs. The campsite is set up spaciously and the vegetation provides plenty of variety: figs, mimosa, bougainvillea, fruit trees, cacti, etc. A swimming pool is nestled in the greenery.On the hill behind the campground, goats, pot-belly pigs, chicks, ducks and guinea pigs potter about like good friends in the children’s farm. And last but not least: “A Cantina”, a small bar/restaurant where Hans prepares delicious dishes from the Iberian cuisine.
