Description
Hey, my name is Susanna, I am 33 years old and I am elementary and primary school teacher. I've taken a year off work and spent the last six months in Stockholm, Sweden. From March until June I will be travelling through Southeast Asia. I'm looking for a place to work and help at in Vietnam during May.
I already have experience with WorkAway since I travelled through Scandinavia via WorkAway a few years ago. Then I helped at a few very different places. I have been volunteering at a Bed&Breakfast, at an apple cider farm, a dog sledding company, a dog kennel/ farm, a moose park, a sheep farm,.... I've met some great people along the way and learned a lot and I'm hoping to be able to have the same experience now in Vietnam!

I had the pleasure of staying and helping at PeNees farm for 2 weeks. It was a great experience and I enjoyed getting to know her and her family a lot. Everybody was really nice and helpful and they made me feel like part of the family.

I worked mainly on the fields with Staffan, picking stones and planting rhubarb. The weather was very nice and i enjoyed working outside on the fields. Most days we had their dog Kompis with us who was great company :).

It has been a great pleasure to have Susanna staying with us.
She saved us when she arrived, because we were stuck abroad and had no one to feed our sheep. With only a few instructions per phone she took herself to the island, found our house and startet feeding the sheep a couple of days before we got home.

I spent the month of march at Barbara and Gunnar's sheep farm and had a really great time there.
My main job was looking after the sheep, which i enjoyed immensely. Their sheep are friendly, cuddly animals and i had a lot of fun taking care of them. Other than that i helped with some smaller projects, like sanding down furniture or insulating… read more

(Summer work at our moose park ...)
I stayed here for one month (january 2019) and enjoyed my time there very much! The hosts, James and Tim, were fair, patient and great to work with. The daily tasks were pretty physical and varied a bit every day. Mostly we collected food for the moose by collecting brush and small trees, cut fire wood or helped clear away some fallen trees.… read more

Every day was different from the next workwise - some days we picked apples, others we sorted them or made juice, ... . It was great to see and experience the process from apple to finished product. Jeppe knows a lot about… read more

I stayed with Maria and her many animals for only two weeks in december and wish i could have stayed longer. The work was fair and revolved mostly around taking care of the animals and some other tasks around the farm. I especially enjoyed her lovely funny dogs. It's just impossible to be around them without being in a good mood :). Maria made me… read more
