We had the pleasure of hosting Jan for a month and a half. He helped look after our golden retriever, Honey. Taking her on walks through town to the off leash dog park and made sure she was fed, watered and brushed. He was responsible and we could always trust him with that and with our 2 year old too! He did diaper changes and took our son to… read more

I lived on the boat for 1.5 months and it was exactly as I imagined it.
You live in the middle of the village center, which means that everything you need can be reached on foot. But the highlight is of course the ocean on the doorstep.
Everyone was so sweet and living together just worked great. The work was fair and diverse from scrubbing the… read more

I spent a total of 3 months at Husky Farm and it was exactly as I had imagined! Lots of dogs, lots of work and the unique experience of standing behind the dogs on a sled. Nancy and Rob know a lot about the dogs and you can have a lot of fun with them, which made us laugh a lot during the always delicious dinner. I can highly recommend a stay with… read more

Jan was part of our sled dog kennel family for three months. He was keen to learn about the care and training of the dogs and accomplished it with ease. We have all positive things to say about Jan. He was wonderful to have around - happy, helpful, keen, knowledgeable, a fast learner, a leader, independent and a team player, and he even makes… read more

It was an absolute pleasure having him stay with me and my little family on my small farm. He was always willing to be a part of everything, he was respectable, kind, and always took initiative to just do what was needed around the farm inside and out. He's got an awesome personality, and sence of humor, and is quite a good baker, he really fit… read more

Left by Workawayer () for host (Experience our animal ...)

I lived 2 months on the small, cozy farm with the really super dear family. My time there was really nice, and I had various new experiences. Whether it was my first time on the horse or the self-made food from Farm. The everyday life was anything but repetitive and the work really diverse, even if it was probably still limited for me due to the… read more

Jan stayed with our family for 2 months and we would highly recommend him to any host family. He was hard working, kind, and keen for any challenge. He did a huge variety of jobs to help us out around our acreage and was always willing to lend a hand with whatever was needed. He practiced his cooking for our family and made a lot of German… read more
