  Arbeit

  We need handy help around the house like painting, tasks with wood, household, gardening etc. :)
  
  Late August / September we maintain and pick (and eat..) fruit from our organic plum trees in our garden. From November to April we mainly prefer travellers with horse experience.
  
  Good basic english is important (we talk english/norwegian at home).
  We need visitors that has experience in practical tasks, is strong and healthy, energetic, active, social, love children, animals and nature! Social activities, cultural exchange and sharing experiences is big a part of our hosting.
  
  Horse lovers and experienced riders are especially welcome! Our horses is a part of our family and just for private use.
  
  If you contact us, please briefly (please make it short) tell us about:
  Why you are traveling, why you want to come, when from and how long you want to stay. What experience you have, If you have experience with horses and workaway.
  
  I do not give riding lessons (or offer riding for beginners). Riding our horses is just for experienced riders max 60 kg and kids. Possible to rent horses in the neighbourhood for lessons. Unfortunately we can not take guests with animals.
  
  I can teach and share my experience in horsemanship, how to understand horses, behaviour, sensitivity, contact and care. We have one small sensitive riding horse mare with a big warm heart, one sweet welsh mountain gelding child pony born in 2001, and one welsh mix born in 2024. Our horses are used just for hobby. They are social and friendly, they always talk to us when we walk out the door. I got my first pony in 1985 so its a lifetime passion.
  
  Travellers that need short stays from one night are also welcome.
  Even when we are fully booked we always have space in the garden for volunteers with a caravan or tent.
  Unfortunately, we cannot host whole families for workaway, but traveling families with a caravan or tent are welcome for a couple of days' stay in our garden.
  We do not produce any farm products, a stay with us is purely private family life.
  Keep in mind that you come into our busy daily life. Plans might change during your stay 😀

  We eat normal healthy basic food. Are not vegetarian, but can adapt for a few days if there are guests who love to cook. We can take visitors that`s vegetarian but not total vegan or need gluten free diary.
  We are not big spenders, try to care for the environment, like second hand stuff, have a normal life & standard.
