Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
You’ll get familiar with the everyday of fruifarming in a Norwegian fjord. We’re a multicultural family of four, looking forward to get to know you. The area offers spectacular hiking destinations like Trolltunga and the glazier Folgefonna. We swim in the fjord all year around and have a sauna to get the heat back. The gem in your stay would be borrowing our small cabin under the glacier. If spectacular hiking- or nature experiences ain’t your thing, we might not be your best choice of host. You’ll learn about culture of the fjords and about the work around farm.
