We stayed longer than planned and that alone describes perfectly how we liked it.
Although we were the first workawayers for Elisa and her family, we were immediately welcomed into the family. Everyone is very open, spiritual, warm-hearted and funny, which is why we enjoyed our time with them very much.

We had a really great time with Anne and Janek. They are both friendly and very open persons. Perfect for us to welcome as our first workawayer. They helped us a lot especially with all the wall painting. But they also took on all the other tasks without hesitation and without having a problem getting their hands dirty.

We had a great first work away experience with Janek and Anne.
They are a very friendly and social couple. Did a good job on my cupboards, kitchen and shed.
The girls loved playing Dixit together. Saar loved the bordgame marathon with Anne.
And we have a new favorite meal... Lasagne di Janek!

Janek and Anne are just great, motivated and very sociable! We felt very comfortable with them, even with our bad English! They work hard and have a great sense of humour! Thank you very much for all the help you have given us. We hope to see you again (this summer ?). Francois, Elena, Tiago y Mila

We spent 10 days with Megan, Alex and Sofia and what should we say. It was just wonderful. Although the weather was pretty unhappy most of the time, we made the best of it. After we finished our work at noon, we often rode their bicycles into the cities or hiked in the surrounding. Also we were brought closer to the delicious French cuisine and… read more

Janek and Anne were a pleasure to be around and to host, they’re very mature and were respectful of our home. They were very happy to do any tasks that we asked of them on the farm, not afraid to get their hands dirty and took pride in their work, the pruning among other jobs that they did was amazing and so valuable to us. They quickly became… read more
