Description
I am Laura - open minded and authentic. I became a lawyer and still spend every free minute outside reading (non legal) books in the sun, collecting wild herbs or roaming with my Husky girl. I am a reliable grown up with a heart and enthusiasm of a child - always curious and honest. For sure: life is best with dirty hands and feet!

My name is Ruben. I don´t like reading and rather spend my time taking photos or videos while Laura has her nose stuck into a book. After working in the real estate business in Germany - most recently as a construction site manager, I decided to join Laura and our Husky to hit the road again. I like to explore the way of living in other countries and meet new people. It is one of the best feelings to feel comfortable as soon as possible very far from home and make new friends.

Left by Workawayer (Laura & Ruben) for host (Building an adventure ...)

Mike's adventure property is magic! He already put so much love and thought into it - you can feel it the moment you arrive. The property is only accessible by boat which makes it very private and special. We stayed in one of the cozy prospector tents with a little fireplace for colder nights and a comfy bed. Next to the prospector tent is a… read more

I knew from the start Laura and Ruben would be a solid, fun, respectful & adventurous couple, and that's exactly how it turned out. From the start they were months ahead in planning and always reliable in every sense. They stayed out at my property during maple syrup season and were always willing to pitch in, and were genuinely interested in… read more

We loved our experience hosting Laura, Ruben & Yuna their Husky dog. They are very open minded, have lots of skills and are hard working. They have a healthy life style, lots of walks and hikes.

It never felt like work to me. The strawable house is magical! It's tucked away in the woods and I completely soaked it up. The stars, the snow and the simplicity and… read more
