Description
We are a family of 3 living on a really small farm just outside the town of Sauðárkrókur. We have around 25 sheep and we also own a few horses. We can use all kinds of help around our personal home, both inside and out, and we also love to meet new people. If you are interested in being a part of our family for a short time and see the beautiful landscape there is to see around us, please contact us :)

We usually try to have one meal a day where everyone sits together and discuss the day or what plans we are having, at least just enjoying each others company.

What else ...
We are close to many historic places, for example Hólar í Hjaltadal, Grettislaug and Glaumbær. We are also very close to a great horse rental farm. And since the country isn't so big it doesn't take much time to drive around a bit to see something else. The volunteers have a chance to learn the icelandic language and be part of our family.
