Description
We are a german couple (Michael and Katja, both 29) and we started a big trip in 2025 which was to travel all the way from South America to Canada. We saw different landscapes and learned about the foreign cultures. It was a great experience. Now our van will be shipped home and we start the second part of our adventure. We would like to help out on farms, learn about the everyday work and get to work on different tasks.
Katja already went to different countries for being a workawayer. Australia, Ireland and Canada. There she learned about different techniques working with horses, natural horsemanship and the english way of riding. At home she helps with training young horses and keeping other horses fit. Michael sometimes gets to help her at the stables. We both love music and play flute/ piano and clarinet/ saxophone in a Jazz Band and a symphonic orchestra. The rest of our freetime is for sports like badminton, volleyball and athletics.
We built the van which was our home the last half year ourselves from the very beginning. We did not have any plans but with creative thinking and a bit of craft skills it turned out to be a wonderful conversion.
In Canada we would like to practise our english, get to know people and habe something useful to do. We sat in our car lomg enough on our way up north ;) -

No matter what work we had for you, you showed up with smiles, dedication, and did everything perfectly.
Michael is a true jack-of-all-trades. He repaired our roof, built a raccoon house together with David, planted trees, fixed fences, … read more
We have been at the ranch for only one week in 2017 when Anne took us in at short notice. We had such a great time that we decided to come back to Canada to stay last summer for six weeks. It never gets boring there. We built a very nice room in the trailer … read more
