Description
26 years old and working on an organic farm after having finished my farming apprenticeship in 2022. I love farming, gardening, animal keeping and working with my hands. I love the outdoors and enjoy physical work, especially being able to see a result at the end of the day. During previous volunteering i have already come into contact with permaculture, agroforestry, eco-building and so on and would love to deepen my knowledge in these areas.
I also love reading, horse riding, hiking and doing crafts.
I also love to learn new things along the way.

I spent three weeks with Ruben and Leire. I had a great time there, helping with the garden and the sheep. Ruben and Leire were both very patient with my not very well spanish skills, making an effort to speak in a way that i could understand. Thanks to them my spanish improved a lot and very rapidly. There is a beach about half an hours walk away… read more

I spent one week with jesus and his community. During that time my main tasks were cleaning out a corner for the new chicken house and other small tasks. The afternoons were always free and i had time to explore the area. Communication was a little difficult as jesus’ english and my spanish were both not very good so i recommend some spanish… read more

I spent two weeks at Angrla‘s and Jan‘s place and enjoyed it very much. There was lots of work to be done, especially a lot of fixing up on the buildings as they had not been here long. But during my stay I really got the feeling they will turn this into an amazing place with a wonderful energy.
Besides work I cuddled with the sheep and the cats,… read more

We had Lena as a workawayer for two weeks and enjoyed her company and high working spirit. She has a lot of valuable skills and knowledge from her intersting work at an organic farm and life in general, and is not afraid to do challenging or hard work. Furthermore she is good company and nice to be around.

I spent two weeks here and quite enjoyed it. I was very warmly greeted by many of the members of the community. I must say it was not quite what I had hoped for, as I had originally hoped to help with renovating the buildings and doing gardening work. As renovating however was done by private parties and workawayers where to help with communal… read more

Altough I only spent two very short days with Nina, Michael and their kids, I had a truly wonderful time. They are warm and welcoming, asked me what of the tasks at hand I would like most to do and learn about and very much included me in the process of decision making. We argued about the best way to position wind breakers and in my opinion ended… read more
