This was my first Workaway experience and I'm blown away!

Sven was an outstanding, kind-hearted, and easy-going host! The view from his home was breathtaking and different every day. The house itself was great too, equipped with a sauna and good sound system! (Careful climbing down those stairs ;)). We had lots of fun nights sipping beer while… read more

Sven is a very generous person ( He picked me up at the station a 3am!!), clever and open minded. I was fortunate of spending a week in Sven's house: the sunsets over the lake were breathtaking! The work was very light, some painting and some cleaning. And always good food. It's a piece of paradise in earth! Absolutely thankful, Sven! Gracias… read more

Our week at Sven´s home was our first workaway-experience and we couldn´t had a better time! Sven is a very open-minded, spontanous and uncomplicated person who always had confidence in us. From him and his funny neighbour we got a lot of interesting tips for different situations we´re maybe going to face. The work we got to do, if there was any,… read more

After meeting Sven, you will realise he has a heart of good, is wonderful to talk to and shares funny stories - you will feel very happy here :)

He kindly requests help, never demands it from you. But the work did not feel like work at all! It was relaxing, enjoyable and a pleasure to do. You will want to stay here, and you will enjoy helping… read more

I spent a brief week and a half with Sven in August and it went by too fast! He is super chill, laidback, flexible and incredibly hospitable. I felt totally at home and welcome. The work was light and simple and I enjoyed everything I did (e.g. cooking, basic housework, helping with outdoor projects...). I also enjoyed all our conversations,… read more

That was a good two weeks with a Sven. It was a pleasure for me to come and help him. After work we have had time to relax , do BBQ and feed my eyes a view on a Lake. It's such a nice natural place so I could chill and rest. I enjoyed his stories about his journey all around the world. I cannot also forget about weekend's motorbike trips.… read more
