More details about your skills
Emil worked in Sweden as a carpenter for 10+ years. While working at a big company I also got experience working as a mentor for apprentices wanting to learn the craft. I left Sweden and volunteered at organic farms in Italy and Sicilia via WWOOFing - where I got to experience olive harvest, garden maintenance, taking care of animals (cats, dogs, horse, ducks and hens).

Julia finished her studies in civil-engineering in Sweden. I'm working with sustainability within infrastructure such as building roads, tunnels or railways in a climate-beneficial way. I have experience mentoring students during their internship. As a teenager I spent several summers doing gardening and maintenance work for the local church in my hometown.

I had the pleasure of meeting Marco during my Workaway stay with his friends Elisabetta and Francesco last summer. From the very first moment, it was clear that Marco is an amazing person, he spreads joy, has incredible energy, and a deep passion for animals and nature. It’s truly inspiring to be around him!

Marco is not only a dedicated grower… read more

Emil volunteered for seven weeks in my small village, he was kind, calm, helpful, resourceful, and his music filled the house and the garden with melodious and beautiful sounds. The time went too fast. I am filled with gratitude for his thoughtful conversations and contributions to my life project. Wishing you the very best in your adventures,… read more

I spent almost seven weeks at Miguels wonderful house in the Minas de oro, Comayagua. I got to meet and greet his two lovely dogs which kept me company while both working in the garden and doing some really fun woodwork. The village is calm and quiet for the most part, the easter celebrations was a exception but I did not mind the festivities at… read more

Our stay at Lidwinas was wonderful. The garden and the surroundings are mesmerizing, you harvest what needs to be harvested, take out the weeds in the garden beds, feed the chickens, water the flowers, help picking berries and fruits for marmelade or other cozy kitchenmaking Lidwina is up to. Raimond has also been a fun and lively man to be… read more

Workaway

Where to begin. My stay with Francesco and Elisabetta was absolutely wonderful. I had planned to stay one month but ended up staying two. We started work early in the mornings because of hot summer days which lead to a lot of sweat, some yawning but also beautiful conversations and laughter. I got to do work in the garden including… read more

Emil and Julia were a wonderful and hardworking couple that we hosted here. The memories we made with them are like nothing else, singing,playing football and more. The work ethic they showed was exceptional and their van lifestyle taught us all something new. We are also very grateful for them submitting the group photo they took at our… read more
