We were warmly welcomed by the whole family and felt very comfortable with them right from the start. There was a lot to do and we were very happy to support Tina and Linus in their daily work. We would like to thank the whole family for the experience we were able to gain. We would also like to thank them for the inspiring conversations. We wish

During the week Franziska and Jan stayed here they helped us a lot preparing, e. g. clearing an area from huge stones in the garden. We also had a great exchange with them during shared dinners about many topics. Thank you so much for your help and good luck realizing your own projects!
Sebastian and Joanna stayed with us for many weeks and it was a great pleasure for us! Not only did they help us a lot with whatever project we were up to, but we also spent nice time together having dinners. They very skillfully helped us doing so many things for the new kitchen (flooring, plastering, painting ...) and new bathroom, but also in

The time we had with Linus, Tina and the children was really wonderful. We were greeted very warmly and felt comfortable very quickly.
They are super relaxed with the working hours and the work organisation, which we found very nice.
In addition, the location of the house is perfect, because you can visit the surrounding cities in a relatively

In general, Linus and Tina were super flexible, and always tried to make everything possible for us and to experience as much as possible in the time we had there. We were always allowed to use the car to do something in our free time. Also we were involved to make trips together, for example to go to the beach or to go skiing in the Pyrenees.
We stayed there for a month and would have liked to stay longer.
The children were also very welcoming to us and we already miss playing Catan together in the evening or making Loombands.
We grew fond of all of them and hope to see you again!
Thanks for everything!
Kind regards, Lilly and Leni
Leni and Lilly were absolutely wonderful to have around. When they arrived, half our family was sick and they were super understanding of the situation. From day one until the end, they did whatever work was necessary and were always friendly. They did a lot of paintwork, helped with rebuilding our bathroom and did a lot of plastering on our old

Leni and Lilly: We really enjoyed having you as our guest! Thank you so much!Feedback

Niclas and Thore were super workaways! They helped us so much with demolition work and especially with insulating our roof, which was a really demanding work. We could not have been happier. They also helped with homework and generally were so much fun to have around, also for our kids.
We really loved having them around.

I spent 4 wonderful weeks with Tina, Linus and their 4 children. The stay was relatively spontaneous and it was my first workaway experience, so I arrived open-minded and excited about my stay (of almost a month). As I was there right at the beginning of the project, I also got to experience the family's "settling-in period", which was certainly a

Despite a lot of planning and work, the family wasn't running out of energy and I quickly realized how hard Tina & Linus try to give themselves, their children and their workawayers a good time - with success: I was normally integrated into family life, but still had my freedom, so I felt very comfortable throughout. From the very beginning, I/we were treated with trust, for example I was allowed to use their car, borrow bikes or surfboards,...
All in all, my stay was very pleasant and the work was not too strenuous. What I would still like to point out is the location - you are dependent on a car (unless you like cycling longer distances) if you want to explore the area and do some fun activities.
Thank you very much for the wonderful time and the warm welcome. Good luck for your future :)You can only contact Workawayers who have an active membership.
We had the best time staying with Tina, Linus and their four children. They were always welcoming and accommodating offering us a lot of information and tips about the area or taking us to nearby cities to explore.
Working in their house and garden we got to do a lot of things for the first time like cutting bamboo and installing flooring in an

This was our first time doing a workaway exchange and we couldn’t be happier with how it went.Help me around the sheepfold in Corsica, France
