Work was exciting and we've learn a lot about cider production.
Thank you Jeppe for everything and I hope I see you again in the future.

We spent five weeks of hard work and good laughs. If you'd like to spend your day doing physical work outdoors in a beautiful island, learning about other cultures and enjoying a good bike ride in the weekends look no further! Great experience and we would totally recommend it :)

Our stay was awesome! We liked every minute of being outside collecting apples (which is the main job and takes most of your time), pasteurizing and pressing, and taking care of the orchards.

Jeppe is a very nice guy, friendly and open-minded. He patiently taught us about the different steps to make cider and he was willing to help us all the time. The island has amazing views and it`s a quiet place to stay. I hope we can go back in summer to swim in the ocean!
Thank you Jeppe!!

We spent two weeks in this place, it was a great time ! Jeppe is welcoming and likes to share with people.

You will meet different people because there is always other workawayers, you will all share lunch, diner with them but not during day off. We

I stayed at Jeppes for about 4 weeks and enjoyed my time there very much. I learned a lot about making apple cider and juice. Every day was different from the next workwise - some days we picked apples, others we sorted them or made juice, ... . It was great to see and experience the process from apple to finished product. Jeppe knows a lot about

After work there is enough time to also explore the island Fejø a bit, which I would recommend to anyone! Nature on the island is fantastic and there are many interesting paths and hidden spots. People on the island are great and very friendly.Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

Jeppe is a very friendly and knowledgeable character running a super cider farm. The apple juice is better than I have ever tasted before and the work, although physical, was not too hard.

I've spent time with Jeppe and other workawayers more than 3 weeks. I'm sure that period was more valuable than ever!
Of course I have felt hard , but not everyday, just sometimes. I could tried the new things like painting, gardening, bottling and so on. When I traveled to other countries after I've learned bottling ( of course after workaway) ,
… read more I was made to be interested in the bottling. That was very nice and interesting experience for me!
Most of all, Jeppe is very considerate, funny and kind host. That's why I could stay more days than I anticipated.
The food Jeppe made was very delicious! I couldn't forget the pasta that Jeppe made on the first day I arrived at Jeppe's house. I experienced a variety of food.
Also we have talked a lot of time, so I could improve my English skills and sometimes feel like the family.
Although I'm in my country, I miss the life in fejoe island and Jeppe (other workawayers as well!!).
During being there, you can feel free and a lot of nature. Although I'm not good at riding a bicycle, I enjoyed fejoe island by taking the bike. When I had the time to ride the bike, I was happy for the culture to say hello in the island (even the unknown people! I'm sure you will be satisfied with fejoe island!)
Thanks to the new experience, I came to maturity mentally.
Thank you for your kindness and choice!!!!Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

Vom Host für Workawayer (Lorena & Nery)
Lorena and Nery are among the best workawayers any host can dream of: Hard working, but also interested, motivated and innovative. Most importantly, they convey an atmosphere of joy and enthusiasm to their fellow workawayers which is precious and rare.
I enjoyed working with them, I enjoyed our talks, and I enjoyed the meals we had. In particular

We have been 6 weeks in Fejø working with Jeppe, and every day was best that the one before.
Yes, the work is sometimes hard, mostly at the orchards (so, if you are not the phisical work person, this is not for you maybe),but you will learn a LOT about cider making, apples, how to take care of trees and the soil, how to be organic and some other

Jeppe is an AMAZING host, very funny and considered and kind, and a hard worker to learn from. He was a great company every day there. We learned a lot about danish history, culture and food with him.
The island is beautiful and very quiet. You can walk or ride on bike all along, go to the beach, enjoy the wild small birds and hares, and maybe some deer also.
The house is big and comfortable, with ver nice front and backyard, and for the meals, we took turns cooking, so we share a lot od different dishes.
You are not going to want to leave the place after a few weeks, for sure.

We greatly enjoyed our time with Jeppe and the other Workawayers. It was amazing to see the whole process -- picking the apples, pressing them, bottling the juice, selling them at a market -- and to be a part of the final product.

Helping Jeppe out with his Apples was my very first workaway experience. And I loved it.

We stayed in a lovely holiday bungalow with a small kitchen, even though we had lunch and dinner with Jeppe all the time, taking turns cooking for each other.
Last but not least, Fejo is a dreamy island, 15 mins by ferry from the mainland, ever so remote and peacefull, with all sorts of fruit and veg growing. Literally everyone we met was up for a chat, super friendly natives. And you might discover that it's not just as lonely as you thought :)
Just don't expect THE beach experience and you'll be great :)

I really enjoyed the whole workaway experience.

Jeppe was a really lovely host and he has a great quirky sense of humour - it felt like he treated us almost as guests or even family and we ate delicious food together every night including trying out the cider, 'gastric' and apple ice cream. It was really interesting to see behind the business and also the lifestyle of people on the island. The holiday house was spacious and cosy with central heating and we had bikes to cycle in between. The island is very peaceful and beautiful and seems to grow pretty much every type of fruit and vegetable so it is a really different experience - you can see the stars so clearly every night, that it does feel like being closer to nature. I would really recommend this workaway experience if you want to try something new, experience the unique environment on the island and meet kind and interesting people.Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.
