Left by host for Workawayer (David)
David spent 3 weeks with us and we all learned a lot from this experience in a good way. David worked consistently and had no problems working on his own. He was skilled in mechanics and helped us out with tasks that we have been postponing for very long. He worked physically hard when that was needed and he a loved to work with wood.
… read more Unfortunately we didnt have that much wood work to offer him in that period but he handled that in a great way, was dynamic and adapted easily to changes.
We experienced David as a sensitive and fair man. He wanted to have meaningful work, feel appreciated and he was honest about it.
We highly recommend David to other hosts and wish him the very best of luck

We have had the great pleasure of having Tifaine staying with us for 7 weeks. Her genuine loyalty, workability and patience makes her a fantastic work away volunteer.

I spent 7 amazing weeks with Inger, Per and Vinjar! They are such generous, patient and warm-hearted people. You can definitely not ask for better hosts! Their place is located in a fantastic area, surrounded by beautiful mountains and forest where you can go cross-country skiing during winter time. The work was never boring and I learned a lot

Inger and Per, thank you for your trust and your kindness and for welcoming me in your awesome family. I will miss you! Good luck for all your oncoming projects. I hope I'll see you again someday!You can only contact Workawayers who have an active membership.

Emeline and Jèrèmy stayed with us for about two weeks and were our first french volunteers. They are sweet and easy going and doing their job in a scrupulous way. During their stay we learned a lot about France and french cooking and they reminded us that life is much more than only work. This was a good reminder for us. They were interested in

My time in norway with Inger, Per and Vinjar was more than great! I felt very comfortable around them, their friends and around the animals for sure:)
During my 4 weeks stay I helped with different types of projects and learned new stuff, for example how to do a potato field or banana cake, how the musher life fells like or how to put up a fence.

I miss the place, with all the dogs and the crazy nature (and freshly baked bred and banana cake)!
I hope to see you again one day! Good luck with all your upcoming projects:)You can only contact Workawayers who have an active membership.

Staying with Inger, Per and Vinjar was our first Workaway experience and we can't imagine a better one.

To get to know Aurore was a gift to the three of us. She is a wonderful, dynamic person who takes any challenge with a warm heart and a cold mind. She was a natural a part of our family from the minute she arrived and her main job was to help Per with the dogs and the races he did this winter. Aurore has a smile and a positive attitude that will
