Description
Hi! My name is Emma, I am a 25 year-old Finnish-Norwegian traveler. I am in the final stages of grad school in Montréal, Canada, and I am looking to travel this fall. I consider myself an outgoing and curious person, with a great passion for adventure. I love making friends and making memories, as well as picking up new skills and knowledge wherever I go.

I have a strong work ethic and I am happy to do many different kinds of work - from farming, to renovation/DIY projects, to general housekeeping, to tourism. Once I set out
to do a task, I am strongly motivated to complete it to the best of my ability!

I love the outdoors, cultural exchange, learning languages, making art, and fostering community. I see this as an opportunity to not only see new places but to meet new people and learn new things. Let's connect!

I stayed with Micaëla and John from mid-January to mid-March 2025. I am blown away by how much I learned during those two months! Micaëla and John, as well as the other people at the chateau, put so much trust in me to work on a wide range of projects and through them, I have picked up many new skills. Where to start? I learned a lot about… read more

Emma stayed with us 2 months and helped with the harvest and storage preparations.

I stayed with Mary Ann and Jack from early September to early November 2024. I cannot recommend them enough! They are very generous, knowledgeable, and kind. I learned so much about permaculture, gardening, and woodworking without having much prior experience. My tasks consisted of lots of harvesting (pears, raspberries, grapes, squashes,… read more

I stayed with Evonne and Darrell from early November to early December 2024 and had a wonderful experience. I got to learn a lot about growing and tending to flowers, especially Dahlias, and I got to spend a lot of time exploring the surrounding areas with the dogs, Bruno and Bo! In addition, I helped with cooking, and some miscellaneous tasks… read more

I had so much fun working at this hostel. I stayed for almost three months, and it is an experience I will never forget. The work itself is pretty straight forward, and Ellen will guide you along and make sure you do your best. Jan is a really cool guy with many talents, and it is always fun challenging him to a game of ping pong, chess or pool.… read more

I stayed with Umit and Seher for two and a half months and I will be forever grateful for the experience.
