More details about your skills

I am a farm kid, so I have experience with hand tools as well as bigger tools. I can drive some farm machines, and I can drive stick as well as automatic. Other than that, I love to cook and work in the garden. I am also quite good with a whipper-snipper if I do say so myself! I am a quick learner and overall keen to get things done.

I don’t really know where to start… Jamie was the workawayer extraordinaire for us! She came to us to do a 4 week dog/chicken/house sit and at the same time share the house with one of our adult daughters. She built an excellent relationship with all of us quite quickly, including our dogs and the nasty rooster. She followed all the rules related … read more

I had the most amazing time with Stefan and Konny! I did some dogsitting and ended up staying an extra month after they had gotten back. There is plenty to be done, but there is an overall relaxed atmosphere that makes everything feel homey! I made great friends with Nika, Konny, and Stefan, and the dogs and lambs as well! Thank you for inviting … read more

I had an absolute blast at this hostel, I genuinely cannot think of a better place to stay. Seb and Miriam are amazing people, and everyone I met at the hostel was very kind and welcoming. I had initially planned to stay for about 6 weeks, but ended up staying for almost 4 months!
The atmosphere is also very friendly, and the hostel is decorated … read more

Jess stayed here for 3 and a half months, and she was terrific. By academic aptitude Jess was about to study aeronautical engineering, and she is definitely technically capable, but her work here was especially with the animals, which was lovely. One Saturday a young group of chickens that had hatched the day after she arrived wanted to follow her … read more

I want to start off with saying that I absolutely loved staying with David! The property and the animals are absolutely beautiful, and it really shows that David cares about the land and the way the animals are treated. David was very kind and welcoming, and by the time a few weeks had passed it really felt like being with family. All the jokes … read more

I spent about 10 days with Yasuhiro and his father. In that time, I learned a great deal about Japanese culture (and food!) as well as farming and charity work. I enjoyed the work we did together.
We also went sightseeing at many places in the area, and I met some lovely people who also live in the neighborhood.

Thank you to you, your father, … read more

She spent about 10 days

I am a sincere, humble and gentle person.

she did the job I asked him to do perfectly.

she taught me how to cut grass, pick up trash, do carpentry, teach English, and cook from his hometown.

I have fond memories of hiking together.

I'm really glad that my first guest was her.

Thank you, Jessica☺
