Beschreibung
Hi! My name is Ingelin, and I am a 28-year-old Norwegian who loves meeting new people and immerse myself in new cultures. I have previously lived in Kenya for 6 months and the United States for 5 months, and I have noticed how being a part of an international environment is what truly makes me come alive.
I would describe myself as a positive, adventurous, and open-minded person who is always interested in learning new skills. I am also a deep thinker and a creative soul - there are few things I love more than thoughtful conversations over a cup of coffee☕️ In my free time, I enjoy reading, writing poetry, crocheting, dancing and going on hikes. I live on a small farm that has been in the family for over 500 years, and my vision is to live a simple yet rich life in harmony with nature.
Through Workaway, I hope to foster deep connections with people from all over the world, challenge myself, be a resource and light to everyone I meet, and follow my dream of exploring the world in a deeply meaningful way.

vom Host (Discover a simple life around ...) für Workawayer ()

Having Ingelin with us for three weeks was a positive experience. She is mature and responsible, silent and respectful, and open and ready to help with everything. We were happy to have we with us and we would recommend the experience.

Vom Workawayer () für Host (Discover a simple life around ...)

I came here because I wanted to experience something new and totally different, and to be in an environment that encouraged deepening one’s relationship with God.

I spent 3 wonderful weeks there, and I would highly recommend this experience to anyone curious about consecrated life and the Catholic faith - or if you’re simply longing for a quiet,… read more peaceful experience filled with love and kindness away from the noise of the outside world :)

The sisters made me feel welcomed from the very moment I arrived, and sister Marthe Rachel in particular made sure that I was well-informed and comfortable throughout my stay. She always took the time to answer my questions, and she is an excellent translator! I appreciate how she and the other sisters went out of their ways to ensure that I felt included.

The work:
- The work is very varied, and it is largely dependent on the season/weather. Since it was sunny during my stay, I mostly worked in the garden - which was lovely! Other tasks included cleaning, organizing some storages outside, and helping the sisters with their handmade products.
- I worked 5 hours a day, and was free to distribute the hours myself (I usually did 3 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon, depending on the tasks)
- There are no expectations to participate in the sisters daily schedules of prayer, mass etc., but one is always welcome to! And if one does, the sisters are happy to explain, translate, and accommodate.

Food:
- I was served lunch and dinner every day, and the meals are varied, healthy and made from scratch - I ate well every single day and enjoyed every meal.

Some practical tips:
- I recommend bringing a warm sweater (regardless of the season) - the long hallways on the ground floor can be chilly
- Slippers to wear inside
- Clothes and shoes suited for gardenwork that are easy to clean (for example rubber boots + rainwear)
- There is a room with wifi in the basement, but otherwise you need data

Note:
- If you happen to be the only Workawayer during your stay, be prepared to spend a lot of time by yourself (the sisters are quite busy throughout the day). I feel like I got the best of both worlds as I spent the first two weeks alone and the last week with 3 other Workawayers. If you happen to be the only Workawayer for your entire stay or parts of it, I recommend seeing it as an opportunity for introspection, self-discovery and growth :)

Thank you so much sisters, this has been an unforgettable experience with a lasting impact - I hope to come back some time!
