Was ist das?
Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten
We live in a very beautiful part of Iceland, called Hegranes, just 7 km from Sauðárkrókur.

The main attraction nearby is Grettislaug, Drangey, Glaumbær, Hólar í Hjaltadal, all these places are historical places in Iceland.

Here on the farm you can go horseback riding, take a trip on the fishing boat with us when we go fishing
Arbeit
We have horses, sheeps, hens, dogs and cats.

The animals are all around us beside the sheeps that goes to the mountains in the summer and are shepherd in the fall.

What we are expecting from our workawayers is to be a helping hand in all the task you will find in our hobby farm.
That can be doing the laundry and the dishes, feeding the animals and riding the horses.
Just like being a part of the family and do things the family is doing.
Also we love it when they cook something from there country :)
We are looking for someone who loves horses and other animals.

Vom Workawayer (Lisa-Maria) für Host

Helping out on Steinunn and Jóhanns hobby farm was my first workaway experience and I thinks it's gonna be getting difficult to top that one!

I stayed for a bit more then a month and felt right at home from the beginning. It’s amazingly beautiful there, I already miss all the animals and I really enjoyed the relaxed work attitude. I also learned… read more

I think I couldn't have picked a better workaway for making my dream of travelling to Iceland come true! :)

Highly recommend!

I can’t imagine a better workaway experience than I had in Steinunn‘s and Jóhann‘s family! I stayed for nearly three weeks and basically helped Jóhann training the horses. I learned so much and had a great and unforgettable time. Furthermore I got many recommendations what to visit in my free time and the places were all definitely worth it.… read more

It was my first workaway experience and I think it couldn't be better. I've had a great holiday and met a very nice and lively family with a lot of humor. They are very welcoming.

Vom Host für Workawayer (Lotte)

It was very nice to have Lotte around.
She was always a step before me, hanging out the laundry, getting it back in, fold it and most other things that needed to be done. So I was a bit spoiled over the time :)
She is very easy to have around, and always willing to do stuff for you.
Thanks for all that you did, and all the te cups you brought… read more

My stay with Steinunn and Jóhann couldn't have been better. There are various jobs to do around the house but there is always time to lay back and enjoy the scenery. The work is really rewarding as you help them build their home.

With the animals around and the beautiful view it never gets boring.
