Patrick and Laura are super duper the best, they have good chemistry between them and work well together. They are eager to see learn and explore new things so they really are open minded. They are handy and everything became sparkling around them and they make good food 👏👏❤️
If you land at Annas and Pálmis place, you never want to leave again. We promise this is the jackpot. It starts with their beings, humour and kindness. It goes on with the trust they gave and the freedom we got. And of course, all the tasks were easy but interesting. We did mostly gardening but it came along with cleaning cars and garages and even

Anna is such a great person. I felt at home since the beginning. Her husband is cool too, like the children. I spent amazing time in Budardalur, thanks to her availability. I had the opportunity to have lunch and dinner in their restaurant too. It's a family I highly recommend. Wish you all the best. ❤

I stayed 3 weeks by anna and palmi. It was my best workaway time i ever had. I see so many different things and enjoyed the time with the family, grietar and dalmar.
The experience to work with icelandic workers on the same project was really cool. The work was for me so interesting and changeable.

We stayed at Anna's mother farm on the south coast in the middle of October for about two weeks. We cannot describe how beautiful and pieceful it was. Gretar and Didi are the most generous and kind people you can ever meet. We wish we had more time to stay, because it really felt like home.
Milking the cowies and cleaning was not hard at all!

Also, we got to meet almost the whole family, which was an uforgettable experience! Oscar and his little boys were very welcoming and open. Domestic dishes and dinner talks with the family helped us to get the whole experience of an Icelandic culture.

I spent 10 days in Anna’s and Palmi’s house. Grétar, the middle kid gave me his room for that time so I had privet space as much I want, but I could be with them if I want.

The work consists of gardening around their guesthouse mostly and their own garden. I never worked more than 5 hours a day and I could collect the hours if I wanted to have more freetime on an other day.
I felt that they appreciated my work and I was happy to make anything for them.
Anna took me with the youngest child to her brother's farm and I could watch around in there and I could see an Icelandic farm life. We were together in swimming pool, in restaurant and I spent a day with their employees. With them we went to whale watching tour and we took a rest in a hot tub, these were amazing! On the evenings I took walk in the beautiful surroundings.
I can not express how good was this time. I am more than happy to start my workaway with them. I absolutely recommend this family.
