Hallo Hans & Mingo!
Ich hatte vor einigen Monaten schon ein Feed-back geschrieben aber das scheint nicht angekommen zu sein!
Das Leben bei euch war seehr Erlebnisreich und hat mir jeden Tag Freude bereitet (ich hoffe der Schafherde geht es gut). Die Erfahrung, die man in den Bergen sammelt sind sehr abwechslungsreich. Das Essen hat mir besonders more

Hi Hans and Mingo,
thank you for the very nice two weeks with you. For me it was a very exhausting time with a lot of work but also with a lot of fun and great experiences!
I think other people who like to visit you should think about if it’s ok for them to live very simple and work hard outdoor, even if it rains and it’s cold. For more

Thankyou Hans and Mingo for a very fun and interesting ten days. It sure was a great experience working and living with you. Cheers Andrew & Mace (friends only :) )
hello only friends! it was great to have you with us and to learn a bit about new zealand. thanx a lot and all the best for you! mingo and hans

I spent there 7 days what was for sure too few. The work seemed quite demanding for some, but I liked it very much. Not to mention the people - warmhearted and open-minded. :) It's a perfect place for those who love mountains and want to get in touch with the alternative way of life, away from hectic cities, rat race and daily stresses, but close more
thxs and welcome back!
