    ********* Update April 10 2025 *********
    We are looking for 1-2 Workawayers to look after our chickens and bees from during 2-3 weeks in July 2025. Please get in touch if you are interested.
    **************************************

    Hi,
    We are Inga and Samuel, a family with three children (13y, 10y and 6y), living in a house in the countryside of Kvaløya, outside Tromsø.
    Last summer (2021), we got a flock of chickens and build a chicken coop. In 2023 we also got two bee hives, and in 2024, another two, from which we harvest honey.

    We are looking for an excited volunteer to help us looking after the house, chickens and bees during 2-3 weeks in July, when we will be on holidays. Possibility to come earlier and stay a bit longer to learn the house duties, harvest some honey in late July and just being around in the daily life.

    In the summertime, there are plenty of outdoor opportunities for hiking, running, mountain biking and fishing in the close vicinity of our house. We have long light days, with midnight sun from mid May to mid July. In the winter, there are endless possibilities for ski-mountaineering and cross-country skiing. Enjoy the beautiful northern lights from just outside the house. You can also visit any of the local dog farms and try dog-sledging.

    Arbeit

    We have had great experience with several Workawayers for the five summers (2020-2024), who helped us to paint the outside of our house and garage, building storage shelfs, building a chicken coop and performing other house maintenance. This was a fun and great experience for all of us.

    Since we also have started with bees, we are primarily looking for Workawayers with previous experience with beekeeping. Also, we would need help with looking after the chickens in periods when we are away. And as always with a big house, there are always general house maintenance duties, such as painting, gardening, digging, and construction. We will provide all the necessary tools and equipment required for this. The Workawayer need to bring own working clothes for outside use.

    Also, we would highly appreciate if the Workawayer has interest in playing with the kids, as well as cooking, and encourage participation in dinner preparations.

    The Workawayer will have an own bedroom and an own bathroom in the main house. We have no TV, but WiFi and a laptop computer can be provided, if needed. The Workawayer has access to an own small kitchen, if needed, or preferably share the main kitchen with the rest of the family.

    There are plenty of outdoor activities and hikes in the area that the Workawayer can enjoy during their time-off. We can provide a bike for easy getting-around, and busses go several times daily to Tromsø city centre.

    We also have a drum-kit, an electric piano and a guitar in the house, which can be used in the time-off.
