Since I have been a vegetarian for about 7 years (mostly to leave a a smaller carbon footprint) , I would gladly teach you some vegetarian dishes. Furthermore I love using myself physically, and I'm born with a stubbornness, which makes me working hard to reach my goals

Me and my friend Emilie spent 10 days at Bea and PH's place. It was such a wonderful experience and it was amazing to get away from the hectic citylife and relax at their quiet and beautiful mini-farm. It was really inspiring for us to see and hear how they have built up their place with a big garden and a lovely tinyhouse. We wish you guys all… read more

Karen Marie and Emilie were wonderful woofers ! Unfortunately we didn't have much time to spent with them but it worked perfectly because they were amazing workers and completely autonomous. They were a big help in the garden and lovely to chat with. Best of luck with your future adventures :) PH&Bea

We (Sofie and Karen-Marie) stayed only five days on Coco's farm, but we really had a great time.

I’m not very good at giving long feedbacks so I will write it short. But staying with Annatina and Martin is one of the best experiences I have ever had. Unfortunately I was not able to stay there for more than a week, so there is no doubt that I will have to come back, cause I’m definitely not done at this place! See you again Martin and Annatina… read more

I had a great week in Slovakia in Branco and Lucie’s weekend house and fruit orchard. Unfortunately I only spent about 24 hours in their company since they both had to work during the week and couldn’t stay at the place. But still their was a lot of work to do and it was so nice to spent a week at this beautiful place!

Our experience with Karen during her one week stay has been excellent. She likes to work hard and it's a pleasure to have conversation with her.

I only stayed with David and Anna for a week, but it was one of the most inspiring and wonderful experiences I have had! David is a real handyman and he also know how to save a tasteless soup and make it into a delicious meal! I have only loving words to say about this place, and I really hope to come back and see the progress that have been done!

Karen was great. Within very short time she got the hang of things and was able to help with building the floor and taking care of the goats, chickens and garden. She helped focalize the kitchen and made some delicious cake. Big thanks and anytime again.
