I had a lovely time staying at Christina’s place. The work was totally fine to do and Christina was very careful with everything and offering breaks. She really tried to make me have a good time and she succeeded. Great food and fun trips to the surrounding towns, sitting in a bar, singing with the local choir on Fridays. The animals are really… read more

I spent two weeks with Christina in September 2020 and I enjoyed my time there very much. It's an old farmhouse full of animals in the middle of nowhere, so if that's your thing you're in luck. The surrounding countryside is beautiful and incredibly peaceful, and the towns and houses are all very cute. Though the farm is remote and isolated we… read more

Vom Workawayer (Ana) für Host

It was a wonderful and beautiful experience at Chistina's. My situation was abnormal due to the pandemia and I was in need of a place to stay in my way to the north of France. Chistina understood my needs and welcomed me at her place even if the stay was meant to be shorter than requested and a last minute. Also, she took care of the situation… read more helping me a lot to devise my journey, buy my train tickets and everything else.
Along with it, Christina REALLY taught me french (I'm in my learning journey) and thanks to her I got a complete boost on my learning, we only spoke french! She's native german though, but had lived in France for most of her life, so she's proficient in both languages and corrects you if you really want to improve! We laught a lot making fun of the language and habits in france as foreigners but also of our own as natives, it really was a amazing and fun cultural exchange if you're looking for that.

They're all a lovely familly (indeed I include the fur and reptilian ones!) and particulary the dogs and cats call for a lot of attention if you're fond of furry friends. Avoid it if you suffer any allergy or fear because the house is theirs and they'll want to meet you and spent time with you. I really got tons of love, I'm gonna miss them. The dogs are all well-behaved but spend all day long over you if you let them. The goats are pretty independant, you'll rarely see them, meanwhile I helped a bit with the pony and the donkey. There are baby turtles at the moment in the house that are curious and lively, and very, very, very cute!!! CHristina knows a lot about the animals she takes care of, you can learn from her if you're curious.

There's not much work to do at the moment; the anexo is almost finished but also I stayed too short for a great participation... au contraire, I could help to clean the house, by accessing difficult areas and saving Christina to do the dishes what she hates jajaja that felt good. However my helping day was short and easy - I would have love to do more. I don't know if for a longer (and more normal situation) stay there would be more to do, but I had an easy going very very light work stay. However Christina is adaptative if you want to go for a trek or change the schedule, we didn't stick to a timetable though I found it nice that everyday she "waited" for me at 8-9 in the kitchen to have a coffee and start the day. Also, her old father (who only speaks german) was with her for the moment and she might prefer you to stay or go along with her for some chores a day for this reason, not to leave him alone.
The acommodation was neat ad very, very good. The room is private and I could even do yoga in it.. The bed is big and Christina gives you anything you need for a goos rest. There's also a wardrobe, shelves, chairs and a little desk. Also the bathroom is very spacious and likely it will also be just for you.

Regarding for Ana, the daughter, she lives appart in an anexo, so the meals are taken with Christina, that's a very interested speaker and have a interesting a nice background, you won't get bored of talking with her! She's cheerful and sweet, very easygoing and always open to have another coffee. By the time I stayed, Ana was healthy and active, had many things to do and needed just a little help at her place with cleaning and doing the dishes, that normally she does herself. You really cannot tell she could have mobility problems at all!

Merci Christina pour m'avoir aidé et pour tout que tu as fait por moi. J'èspere que moi aussi j'ai été de l'aidée pour toi a la maison, et que tu aies pu te reposer un petit peu et t'amuser de ma companie! ^^ Je vais jamais oublier mon petite séjour chez toi (mon dieu et les petits tortues...!!) et peut-être que quelque jour je vais retourner en parlant l'allemand jaja
Allez bien, gros bisous et à bientôt! :))))

I had a really good a time at Christina’s place (spent almost two weeks). She is open-handed, funny and a great cook. The work was easy and mostly at the garden, where there are a bunch of animals. The spot is located in the countryside, perfect to relax. I got to discover that part of the country because I had lots of free time and a motorbike to… read more

I had a very odd experience staying with Christina.
I was supposed to stay with her for 10days but after the 1st day decided that it was better for me to leave.
Her house is truly in the middle of nowhere. I went on a 1h30min walk and only saw one tractor. It's very nice for people that enjoy their own company. So it wasn't really for me.

Christina's house is in the middle of nowhere; however, my month there went very fast, due to the lovely time I had there.
The work was doable. I did some cleaning and gardening and then some more cleaning.
Christina has the same type of humor as me, so we had some good laughs.
If you like to hike, you can walk on the Camino to town; it is only 5… read more
