Me and my partner stayed in Húsavík, in the north of Iceland, for one month from February to March. It was Louis' first Workaway and my second one, and we couldn't be more grateful for choosing this family! It was an incredible experience in Iceland, hosted by the kindest people on Earth! Johanna and Orly are two busy parents, but also very… read more welcoming, generous and happy. Anita, Ylva and Atlas are very happy, funny, playful and affectionate kids. In the first 15 days we had very light household tasks to do, never more than 3h a day, and lots of free time to explore the city. We did things like cooking, cleaning, vacuuming, babysitting and playing with the girls, so it never felt like a hard work. In the second half of our stay, we had a chance to work at a museum owned by them, which made us discover even more about this big part of the Icelandic culture. At this time we had lots of free time to work in our personal projects. We had many dinners together (always happy moments), the super tasty pizza night (thanks to Johanna) and we had the chance to watch the Icelandic contest that chooses the singer to go to Eurovision. The family brought us to visit a famous waterfall, Akureyri, and we also joined Orly to go to another city to help with his work. Orly has a big knowledge about Iceland, videomaking and so many things, so it was always a pleasure to talk to him. Orly's father showed up a few times and shared his passion about the city, Iceland's history and the celebrities that he hosted there. Johanna taught us about life in Iceland in general, kids behaviors, gave us some tips about weather (very useful ones) and when to see the Northern Lights. It was a dream to see them and we saw 4 times in total, which made our month even more special! We had a chance to see 2 whales while walking near the lighthouse and 2 seals in the harbor. We are big fans of nature in all forms and Iceland provided many different types of landscapes. We also met 2 other volunteers there and we did a trip together, which unfortunately ended by us being rescued by Orly and his father, because there was too much snow and the car got stuck. Fortunately everyone was safe and Orly really helped us in this difficult moment. The family always made sure we were good and that we had everything we needed. They are masters in hospitality and they made us feel like home from the first day till the end! Thank you sooooo much for all this experience! We really hope to be back and to see you again!!! :) Mariana and Louis
