I stayed with Caroline and Olivia for 6 weeks and I enjoyed every minute if it :-). Caroline is very welcoming and kind and they live in a beautiful house in the mountains. Every day I was overwhelmed with the beauty of my surroundings. I mainly helped in the household, cleaning, cooking, garden work and taking our their amazing dog Brownie. The

When there was leisure time Caroline would take us out climbing and hiking to get to know the mountains and the environment. Her daughter Olivia, is an amazing young woman. She is very active and independent and likes to hang out. Overall, this was a very full and positive experience that I look back on with warmth and joy.Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

Vom Host für Workawayer (April)
April is a bomb of creativity and energy and ready to seize any opportunity that presents itself to her. She seizes the bull by the horn and rides with incredible drive and enthusiasm and the willingness to push her limits in exploring. She had amazing ideas to reorganize my house and in our current life circumstances, I was happy to let her

I stayed for seven weeks with Caroline and Olivia. From the first day, I was invited along to some unbelievable experiences until the day I left. I learnt a lot about living around such huge beautiful mountains. It takes someone with the drive to do this workaway experience as the village is very quiet, although when you put yourself out there

The work is very flexible and you become a part of the household very easily. Thanks, Caroline and Olivia for the summer!
Vom Host für Workawayer (Julie)
Julie spent most of the winter with us. She is quiet force who was always there to help when asked, adventured with the dog, baked us nice cinnamon buns and made us some nice meals and joined us on many adventures. She thrived here by making her own friends and making the best out of her stay by going skiing most days and enjoying the Verbier

Julie pushed her departure date to provide us with support, both emotionally and helping me with tasks to figure out this new life and easing the pain of all things at this early stage of loss. Julie is caring and embraces all things life. Thank you Julie.

I spent about three months here during the winter season. This journey has given me many adventures and experiences I will take with me for life. It has allowed me to see many new places and meet many wonderful people, for which I'm incredibly grateful.
Caroline and the family welcomed me with open arms and lots of love. They went out of their

I really enjoyed spending time with them, and not least with Olivia. In addition, Caroline has been incredibly good at connecting me with others, leading to me making friends for life.
Not least, I have been able to ski a lot, almost every day, if I wanted to. In addition, they have a very good climbing facility in Verbier. Apart from that, I have spent a lot of time on trips with the dog either on foot or by bike in beautiful Swiss alp scenery (Brownie is just the best dog in the world, and I might have to bring him home in my suitcase). They also brought me along for some of their trips, allowing me to see a lot of other skiing facilities.
In summary, this has been an adventure I will never forget, and it has helped to shape the way forward in my life. Anyone fond of mountains, walks, skiing, and dogs can expect a wonderful stay with wonderful people.Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

I stayed with Caroline, Adam, and Olivia for around three weeks and truly LOVED my experience. Their family could not have been more welcoming, and I will forever cherish my time in Switzerland. Olivia is an amazing, strong and adventurous girl and was so enjoyable to be around. She felt more like a friend rather than a younger kid. I spent a lot

Caroline went out of her way to pass on her insight about hiking and running trails in the area and was even so generous to connect me with a friend in my desired industry who allowed me to shadow for a day. Caroline and Adam's careers in the outdoor world are an inspiration to me and helped me better understand the career I want in the intersection of film in the mountains. They truly made me feel a part of the family and I hope to be back some day!!
So much love,

Staying with Caroline and Adam was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. They immediately welcomed me into their home and made me feel like one of the family. I learned so much from them, not only about the mountains and skiing, but also about life. I was included in so much of their life that it felt like I had been there for more than just 3
… read more months. Both Caroline and Adam are truly inspiring and I can only hope to be as cool as them one day.
Olivia is an incredible kid. She’s strong and creative, and very fun to hang out with. I had a great time trying to keep up with her skiing and watching her choreograph dance routines in the living room. It truly felt like having a little sister.
Brownie, the dog, is the love of my life and I wish I could have brought him home with me. While everyone was at work and school, brown dog and I went on countless walks and ski tours together. He’s the best trail partner out there.
I know I’ll make my way back their direction at some point and I hope that time comes quick because I miss them all so much!
A fantastic Workaway opportunity for anyone looking to spend time in the mountains and be part of a wonderfully cool family. Flexibility and communication go a long way, and in return you’ll have an unforgettable experience.
So much love, MelinaDu kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

Caroline, Adam, Olivia and Brownie… my heart is full for you all! The time I have spent being welcomed into your lives has changed me forever.
I spent 10 weeks with the place; within those weeks I fell deeply in love with the Swiss Alps, learned to sport climb on some spectacular classic routes, listened to the wonderful words and encouraging
… read more mindsets of C + A (who have helped me figure out a little bit more of my path through life and motivate me to challenge myself as a person) and, of course, spend lots of time with their darling daughter Olivia - a strong, fearless, talented and amazing young girl who I often felt was more a little sister to me. I love her very much and hope to come back and visit when I’m over again!
If you are looking for a workaway that will open your mind, deepen your relationship with the mountains and feel unconditionally loved and welcome - this is for you!
All my love, AlisonDu kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

Dear Caroline and Adam, thank you for opening your home to me for just under two months in the summer. It has been truly a wonderful experience and privilege that I will cherish for my life (not to sound too corny). I felt welcomed into your family from the second I stepped in your doors. Thank you for taking me on so many adventures, and for

To any future Workawayers, their profile is very accurate. I didn’t have a set amount of « hours to work » each week, so maybe the lack of rigid structure isn’t for everyone, but if you just have good communication with Adam and Caroline, clean up after yourself and do a bit more here and there, I’m sure you’ll have a great time. The experience will be what you make of it. Would love to go back one day.
