    Hello and welcome!
    We are a friendly and easy-going family living in Akureyri, the beautiful capital of North Iceland. We enjoy meeting people from different cultures and hope to welcome someone who would like to become part of our everyday family life for a while.

    We are looking for one experienced Workawayer aged 25 or older. As we receive many applications, we kindly ask that only applicants who meet this requirement get in touch.

    We are looking for someone who speaks good spoken English, enjoys practical tasks and takes pride in helping keep our home running smoothly.
    The main focus is everyday household tasks, such as preparing family meals, doing laundry, cleaning and keeping the house tidy. There will also be some light gardening and simple maintenance projects from time to time.
    As we usually prepare and enjoy the same family meals together, our home is generally a better fit for someone who enjoys a varied diet and is not vegetarian or vegan.

    We have three children at home, aged 12, 13 and 16. Our home is completely nut-free due to a severe allergy, so we really value someone who is reliable, responsible and happy to respect our household routines.

    Family life can sometimes be busy, but we have a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. We hope to find someone who enjoys being around people, takes initiative and is comfortable working independently when needed. We enjoy spending time together, but we also understand that everyone needs time to themselves. You'll always have your own private space, and we respect each other's privacy and independence.

    Our home is located in a quiet residential area, close to beautiful nature, hiking trails, a golf course and many outdoor activities. Akureyri is a wonderful place to experience authentic Icelandic life, and public buses within the town are free.
    In return, you'll have your own private room, all meals provided, and plenty of time to explore North Iceland and experience everyday Icelandic family life.

    If you're looking for a genuine cultural exchange, enjoy helping with everyday family life, and would like to experience living in North Iceland, we'd love to hear from you!
