Vom Workawayer (Laila) für Host
I can't describe how incredible Rahel, her family, the animals, and the whole experience was. I stayed with them for about 2 months and would return and visit in a heartbeat. While I was there the number of volunteers and people living in the house changed but the environment remained kind, comfortable, and lots of fun. In a typical day, I would

I experienced the warmer weather as well as the cold and throughout it all, the farm remained absolutely gorgeous. The horses were an absolute delight and Rahel was kind enough to let me ride which was such a fun and educating experience. I learned and experienced the most fantastic things during my time and I will never forget it.

Vom Host für Workawayer (Laila)
Dear Laila
Thank you very much for coming to our farm. You were great.
Laila was with us for 10 weeks. After the usual familiarisation phase, Leila fulfilled her tasks very well and independently.
She enjoyed working with the horses and all the other animals and was very keen to learn new things.
She also helped in the garden with the apple
… read more harvest. She also helped with certain household chores.
Introduced us to her home cooking.
And learnt how to make preserves.
She always asked, ‘What can I help you with’?
A really very nice young woman and I can only recommend her highly.
Laila, I wish you all the best for your future.
Rahel
Nili Rosenstock and Oren Shacham and their daughter Assiya stayed with me here from 1 February to 29 May 2024, and then again from the beginning of July to the beginning of August of the same year, a total of almost 5 months.
After a familiarisation phase, Oren and Nili looked after the horses, chickens and ducks. They were also involved in the

I found them to be reliable and trustworthy, honest people, which allowed me to leave the house for some days at a time, knowing that everything was in good hands.
Communication between us was always clear and straightforward.
We had interesting conversations about many topics. They also got on very well with the other WorkaWays and during the long time that the family were here on our farm, we also got on very well and became friends.
I sincerely wish them good luck in life and more beautiful places to get to know.
We stayed with Rahel and her family for a total of almost 5 months!
Right from the beginning, we were integrated, and cared for, as a part of the family. Even now, 4 months after we left, we still feel a special connection to them, and maintaining good communication.
The work was around the farm and the house. 9 horses, 2 donkeys, a dog, several
… read more chickens and ducks, and 4 cats. The routine was around cleaning the stables and feeding the horses and other farm animals. Other tasks involved minor repairs, painting, cleaning of the house, walking the dog. During the springtime there was a lot of garden work as well – digging, planting, pruning apple trees and establishing a vegetable garden, and a lot of weeding.
The tasks were very straight forward, easy to understand. Most of the time, the work was on our own or with other workawayers, when Rahel join in occaisonaly.
The communication with Rahel was very clear and honest. Whenever difficulties arose we did our best to communicate it and to get to an understanding. It happened several times, and this what allowed us to stay there for a long period.
We always communicated around the food schedule, and we always managed to find the time to sit and eat together, usually followed by relaxed and interesting conversations.
We found Rahel to be, obviously, very devoted to her work around the farm, and that she expected everyone to be as devoted. Usually there was no fixed times for work and it's more of a flexible schedule, because, after all – it's a big farm and there's always something to be done…
All in all, we had a very profound-in depth experience, getting a glimpse into the life and we learned a lot from it. Thank you Rahel for your hospitality, help, and for being an inspiration to us. We with you and the family (including all the animals) the best of the best.

I arrived at a new and unknown place on my first workaway experience and after little less than 20 days I was feeling as I was leaving home. I definetly gonna miss it.

… read more tasks. I learnt a lot and I am sure I have a lot more to learn here.
Cooking together and lots of conversation, with Rahel and other workawayers, gives a lot of oportunities of exchange experience and a feeling you are in family.
The house is nice and cozy in a beautiful landscape. It is really a lovely place that shows you animals can be raised free and together and live in closer contact to people. They really made a great work with this place. If you like animals you shouldn't miss this opportunity. I learnt a lot and had a great time with the people here taking care of horses, cats, dog, rabbit, chickens and ducks.
The horses are amazing, each one has its own personality, that you are able to know
better while working among them. You will learn a lot about behaviour on a herd just observing them and, after few days, allnof them can become closer to you. Right in the middle of the horses, I cannot forget to mention the sweetness of the donkeys. It was an amazing experience being with all of them.
The sweet 4 cats like to be cuddled and are adorable and friendly, as well as the rabbit.
I do not have words to describe Ava, the dog. You have a great scenario for a walk with Ava, if you like walking and take your time to get along with her in the walks.
I am definetly gonna miss them all.
I just have to thank everyone for this great experience. I am gonna miss this place a lot.Weitere Bilder

Vom Workawayer (Pia) für Host
Ich habe 10 Wochen an diesem wundervollen Ort verbracht und die Zeit sehr genossen. Ich habe mich bei Rahel, ihrer Familie und den Tieren sehr wohl gefühlt und alle haben mich mit offenen Armen empfangen. Sowohl der Hof als auch die Umgebung sind wunderschön und es gab jede Menge Freizeitgestaltungsmöglichkeiten. Die Gegend um den Bodensee,
… read more insbesondere Lindau, ist natürlich sehr zu empfehlen.
Rahel hat ihr enormes Wissen über Pferde mit viel Freude und Geduld an mich weitergegeben und ich konnte viel Neues lernen. Auch das Wohl der Tiere lag ihr sehr am Herzen und es war mir eine Ehre, ihr Vertrauen im Umgang mit ihnen genießen zu dürfen. Sowohl die sehr gut ausgebildeten Pferde als auch die anderen Tiere sind mir mit der Zeit sehr ans Herz gewachsen.
Besonders gut hat mir die Abwechslung der Arbeit gefallen, vom täglichen Stallausmisten bis hin zur Gartenarbeit und Marmelade kochen – das sagt wirklich alles.
Alles in allem hätte ich mir keinen besseren Ort für meine erste Erfahrung mit Workaway vorstellen können und bin Rahel und allen anderen Lebewesen hier sehr dankbar für die tolle Zeit und die unvergesslichen Erlebnisse.Vom Host für Workawayer (Pia)
Liebe Pia
Vielen Dank dass du bei uns auf dem Hof warst. Pia war 10 Wochen bei uns auf dem Hof.
Pia hat sich sehr schnell in ihrer neuen Umgebung eingelebt und sehr gut mitgearbeitet.
Gartenarbeit hat sie sehr gerne gemacht. Sie war auch in der Apfelernte dabei und hat sehr fleissig mitgearbeitet.
Ihre Leidenschaft galt dem Einkochen von Früchten

Aber auch bei den Pferden war sie glücklich und hat die Stallarbeit immer sehr gewissenhaft erledigt. Pia war mit Leila aus Boston bei uns, die beiden haben sich hier kennen gelernt und sich hervorragend verstanden und sehr gut zusammen gearbeitet.

Pia ich wünsche dir alles Liebe und Gute für deinen Lebensweg.

Bit of a delayed review, but I would like to state how incredible my time in July was here! I stayed for 5 weeks and was so sad to leave. I instantly felt so at home and welcomed by Rahel and her family, especially in the big beautiful spacious house. For a horse lover it was heaven, with incredible riding trails and well trained horses, who were

It was so much fun to make jam from the freshly picked berries, take turns cooking our favourite dishes, and participating in the summer riding camp was a unique experience that I'll hold dearly forever. The communication barrier rarely caused any problems and it was so enjoyable learning things about a different culture. It was also clear right from the beginning what was expected of me, and everyone felt comfortable to talk about their needs and if something wasn't working. There was a lot of work to be done but the schedule was flexible and I appreciated that I could take a few days off to visit my friend in Switzerland. Everything felt really smooth like a well oiled machine, all parts working together, everyone playing their part in getting the work done whilst still having fun.
Lake Konstanz and Ravensburg and the surrounding areas are beautiful, perfect to explore on your time off! I highly recommend this WorkAway, if you love animals and gardening and the feeling of satisfaction after a good hard days work. I cherish the time I spent here and I honestly cannot wait to come back!
Thank you for having me Rahel <3

Vom Workawayer (Oliver) für Host
Dear Reader,
Where does one begin? There is such a positive experience to recount, but I shall try to keep it brief.
To give some context to my experience, I am a 29 year old male from New Zealand who generally likes being active, fixing things, and cooking / baking.
I stayed with Rahel and her family for three truly wonderful months. My
… read more experience was such that I left feeling connected to both the farm, the lovely people who live there, and naturally the animals.
The House:
The house is a beautiful and charming, with many a room to choose from depending on whether you want space or company. The kitchen is any food lover’s dream, with lots of working space and all the equipment you need. Eggs are fresh from the chickens not 20 metres from the house, and fresh fruit is picked seasonally from which jams and various cakes can be made.
The Village:
Judetenberg is small Village connected to the bigger City of Ravensburg, via bus, while locally there are two great lakes for swimming and general farming areas to explore. I found I was often happy to spend my free time staying at the farm because it is so relaxed and easy going.
The Work:
My work was a good mix of morning and evening feeds for the animals, cleaning the horse stall, and general farm work / woodwork. If you enjoy being outdoors and around animals Rahel's place is 100% a good fit for you, anyone of a basic fitness level will be able to get stuck in and be comfortable. Naturally if you are a rider / have experience with horses you may get more from this opportunity, but as someone with no experience with horses I found I very quickly became comfortable working with them. By the end of my stay, I really got to know each horse, their personality, and what made them tick. Also, I learnt about grooming, a little bit of hoof care, and began my journey of learning to ride.
The People:
Perhaps the best aspect of my stay (or perhaps equal to only the animals, namely the horses) was the great people. Rahel and her family are fantastic, they truly welcome you into their home and lives and you'll have lots of opportunity to make connections. The children have a great group of friends too so there's often something happening at the house. Everyone speaks both English and German too so there's opportunity to practise one or both should you wish.
What more to say?
Perhaps there is just one question to be asked to summarise my experience, that is, would I go back and do it all again?
To which I wholeheartedly say YES. I would without hesitation go back again, in fact I hope to when I come back to Europe.Dieser Workawayer hat sich dafür entschieden, sein Profil privat zu schalten, kann aber von anderen Workawayern bezüglich dieses Feedbacks kontaktiert werden.

Oliver was with us for three months, he settled in very quickly and was always friendly and open-minded.
He got on very well with the other workaways. He is very clean and helps in the kitchen and around the house. He did a great job with the horses, even though he had no previous experience with these animals. He is very interested and kind to

Rahel and her family are very friendly and welcoming. I loved hearing about their family memories and stories - something that could easily be felt from the atmosphere in their home. Their home is located in a beautiful area in the countryside with lots of opportunities to explore the surrounding areas (including the cost Illmensee).
Tasks often

Given the time of the year, some weeding and planting needed to be done as well. Some days I had headaches/an irritated eye, and Rahel was very understanding of my need to rest/be flexible with work during the day.
Overall I had a fantastic first Workaway experience in nature with Rahel and her family, and I am grateful to have had the opportunity to stay with them :)
Thank you Rahel, and wish you all the best!Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

We stayed at Rahels amazing farm for 18 very nice days.
During this time we were a part of the everyday life around her farm.
The work routine was cleaning the horse stables and feeding the horses 2 times a day and taking care of all the other animals. But mostly around the horses.
We came to this place and had never worked with horses before,
… read more but this was not a problem.
The day we came we got a very nice and warm welcome and were a part of the family from the second we arrived.
Every day we had dinner together with the family, got some nice chats and learned to know each other and told our different stories.
A super open house where there is space for everyone and everyone is welcome.
We were so happy for the experience to come and work at this special place. To get the experience to work with horses and learn how beautiful creatures they are and everyone of them are different was one of the nicest experiences from someone there who didn't know anything about horses beforehand. It was a total meditation experience for us to work around them and we would love to do it again.
To everyone there likes to work with horses or would like to try, like to do some gardening, or every other task they could come up with around the farm, cuddle with cats or with their dog Ava, be a part of an open family and share stories and different cultures - please don't hesitate to write a message to Rahel!
Thank you for everything and we are already looking forward to seeing and visiting you again.

Coming to Rahel's house was awesome. I saw the most beautiful winter landscapes ever!
The help is simple and relaxing. The horses are as sweet as the cats. Rahel's is a perfect host, calm, funny and interesting. Her kids are also a lot of fun. I hope to come back one day.
Thank you very much!
