  Beschreibung

  We are a couple in our 50s living in a traditional log house at 780 meters above sea level in Nesbyen, Norway. During the summer our youngest daughter (20) will also be at home.
  We both work full time, and hope this arrangement allows us to get some help while also meeting new people and giving someone the chance to experience Norwegian mountain life.
  
  You should:
  • be in reasonably good physical condition (the work is physical)
  • be practical and able to work independently of course after good information and training
  • speak English or a Scandinavian language
  • be comfortable spending time alone as we might be at work during daytime. (see more at the end)
  
  Experience with horses is a plus, but not required, but you should not be allergic to horses.
  Ideally you have a car or at least a driver’s license. If not, you can borrow a bicycle.
  Bring your own work clothes and sturdy shoes suitable for wet terrain. We provide work gloves.
  
  We have two horses, age 4 and 23.
  
  Status pr 16.4.26: We are now fully booked (unless some of the peaple we have made plans with backs out).
  We might however have an opening for a girl who want to stay here with another workawayer 11.-18.5. or 1.-11.6.
  10.-17.8. might be open for one girl, but we have one person waiting to give us an answer by may.
  September might also be open.

  Was noch ...

  The area is great for golf, bicycle both terrain and downhill. Check out visitnesbyen and nesfjellet for more information. Our jacuzzi can be used whenever you want to. We also have a lake 5 minuts walk from our house, where it is possible to go swimming.
  
  We would like to keep the opportunity to go on vacationfor a few weeks og for a long weekend. Our daughter (20) will probably be at home. Therefore it would be good to let us know how you feel about staying here if we're not here.
  When we are working, you will have most of the day on your own, therefore it is important taht you are hapy spending time/working alone -you will of course be given all information to make sure it goes ok.
  We live 12 km from Nesbyen, 2 km from the golf course, 2-7 km from the pastures. If you don't plan to come by car, it will therefore be necessary to use a biyce to get around if you are doing thngs on your own.
  
  If you are a couple or two friends, that might be nice for you, if you travel alone, please let us know if you would like to stay here at the same time as another workawayer or if you prefer to stay here alone.
