Dejado por el anfitrión para el workawayer (Lucrezia)
Lucrezia stated a month at our little farm helping out with all sorts of practical work. When she came she was quite inexperienced in the outdoor work, but she showed a remarkable ability to figure things out and get it done. She learned a lot of new skills and it was so fun to see. She helped with washing the indoor wood walls to prepare for

Spending a month with Ingeborg and the kids was an amazing experience that I am so grateful for! From the first day, they truly made me feel part of the family, involving me in everyday activities, little weekend adventures, board game nights with all the family and much more: there is so much magic in sharing a cup of a hot drink while also

I really appreciated all the deep and honest conversations I had with Ingeborg, and all the new things she showed and taught me. I also really enjoyed the time I spent with her lovely kids, playing together and having fun.
Talking about the work, what I did was mostly preparing and stocking the wood for the winter and cleaning the house’s wood walls in preparation for painting, and I appreciated being able to adjust it to my everyday needs in terms of my energy levels and the activities I liked to do during the day. I also learned a lot of new skills!
Furthermore, I loved every single moment I had the possibility to spend in the beautiful nature surrounding the farm, especially picking berries, chatting around the bonfire and walking in the forest.
Tusen takk for everything Ingeborg, and I really hope we will meet again in the future!

Paula stayed with us a month in the transition between winter and spring and then came back for a short week end of summer/beginning of fall. She was such a big help. She is very good at practical work of all sorts and has a big drive to get things completed in a proper manner. She helped with all sorts of things. Like trimming berry bushes,

She is self driven and plans her own day making sure things get done while also taking care of herself. Paula has a great mood and I’ve had many very interesting conversations with their. I can highly recommend hosting her and I will say YES!!! if she ever want to come back here.

Thank you Ingeborg for a wonderful six weeks with you and the children. It was my first workaway experience and it couldn't have been better. The kids are super sweet and we spent a lot of time playing cards or outside in the garden.

Andy stayed with us in our house for almost a month. He is very easy to communicate with and took initiative to figure out when things wasn’t clear. Such as expectations and tasks that needed to be done. He was such a big help for us! I really enjoyed having him around. He painted and was self driven on this task. Picked berries and helped making

Northern Lights over our house on January 1st
Ceremony and bonfire place in the garden.
This summer we put down the potatoes after my grandmas recipe with a no dig setup.
There’s usually at least this much snow during winter. And yes, it’s Northern Lights.

Landscape. This land belongs to the farm.
Winter view from just in front of the house. At night you can see the stars very clearly.
View from the kitchen table. I love the old barn. It will be a project for later.

Dear Ingeborg, thank you so much for the two months at your farm! It was my first workaway experience and I absolutely enjoyed it! From the first moment on, it felt absolutely right to be there with you and your two lovely kids! I am very happy, that you thaught me so many things for example how to bake sour-dough bread:) Furthermore, I have had a

I also need to mention how wonderful the nature around your house is, I had so many magical moments there, I really appreciate that!
All the best and looking forward to see you again!Solo puedes ponerte en contacto con workawayers con membresías activas.

Thank you for 2 great months, Saskia! I am so grateful for all the vegetarian food you cooked for us, the bred you baked, delicious banana bread and all your help keeping the house pretty clean and tidy. With two kids alone and the chaos of moving into our new space it's been immense help to have you around. My kids loved spending time with you

Johanna, thank you so much for staying with us and helping us out! We still dream about the great vegetarian dinners you prepared (so good that meat-loving Sveinung mentioned them yesterday evening!). I also appreciate the open communication we had. It was easy for me to know where I had you because I knew if something was not clear you'd tell me.

They enjoyed so much spending time with you. And it was good for me to know that they where in good hands when you looked after them. Thank you for all the deep and honest conversations about cultural differences, helicopter parents, listening to intuition, following your hearts desire and letting go of the things that no longer serves us. We enjoyed having you around and you are welcome back any time!

Although I only spent about two and a half weeks with Ingeborg, Sveinung and the kids, it felt much longer, because my time there was so intense. It was without a doubt the best workaway experience I could have hoped for. I was treated as a part of the family right from the start and despite their full and fast-paced day to day life, there was

My job that didn't feel like a job was to organize and clean the household and to cook dinner for the whole family which was always very much appreciated (I gained a lot of confidence as a cook), and sometimes looking after the little one. Ingeborg, Sveinung and the kids are absolutely heart-warming and heart-opening people. I especially appreciated the open and honest communication at all times and the interesting and supportive talks I had with Ingeborg who to me is truly an inspiring woman. Tusen takk for alt and until we meet again!Solo puedes ponerte en contacto con workawayers con membresías activas.
Pat and Caroline spent three weeks with us helping out with different tasks in the farm house, at the farm and outdoor painting. They are so fun to be with, interesting to talk to - genuine, heart warm and kind people. The tasks they did for us was very well done.

We spent 3 weeks with Ingeborg, Sveinung and their delightful son Sverre. We were made very welcome and felt like part of the family straight away. We cleaned out the barn in preparation for the sheep being brought in for the winter as well as helping with painting the apartment and a room at the farm. We were included in several larger family

Ingeborg is a great cook and she prepared some delicious meals, to enhance our interesting philosophical discussions. I also experienced yoga in the rain by a riverbank which was a refreshing approach. They have 3 lovely cats which we enjoyed fussing over. Our stay was really relaxed and felt like a home from home, missing it already.

We hosted Emilie and Flavien for 12 days. It was our first Workaway and a great experience. The work they did was to wash, brush, scrape and paint our wooden house. They knew how to do this and did a great job with it. They organized the work themselves and they let me know when something was missing or they had any questions. The work was very

They found themselves what they needed in the cupboards and the kitchen was always cleaned up when I came back. Emilie and Flavien are really good people and I would highly recommend hosting them if you get the chance.Join our family in everyday living in beautiful Rosendal, Norway
