Description
LI-HO !! HELLO!! This is Tung from Taiwan. I have been an English teacher for over three years, but I worked in a foundation as a markting since my coummity job expreience. Once, I had a big traveling in Euroup and South-east Asia after graduating, and this year after working many years is a great time to travel again for a long tern for celebrating my thirty .

The reason why I join workaway during my trip based on my volunteering experience. I worked in an orgination which foucs on youth empowerment and oversea community job.
I am always a fan of learning different cultre and experiencing various life style. I love new challenges and learn new skills. Also, I am an active, energetic, creative, open-minded, and reponsible, with any character as a teaher for elementary school students.

This year I got German working holiday visa for a year. Life doesn't need limitation, trying different things which never show up in my life will be super cool.

I stayed in Gunnar 's place for one and a half month in winter 2024.
Gunnar is a good host. I had some problems from my previous host. And Gunnar replied me quite fast, so I could leave there as soon as possible.
He is easy-going, talktive, adventurous, open-minded host. And the most important thing is we eat good here. Highly recommended here.… read more

Before I will write bad words, please look to my other about 25 excellent reviews. And you wasn`t the first volunteer outside from Europe (Julia from Australia, Tamara from South Afrika, Antonia from Canada, Ella from New Zealand, Julia from Amerika,.....) Perhaps you are able to work hard but we were not the right Team for you.

I was there Nov 2024, and I told myself if the memory comes up again. I'll post the feedback.
In my original plan, I was supposed to stay there two months, but I only stayed there for two weeks. My arm got injured from another workaway, so Anja and I had an agreement to change the plan.

Füssen is a good spot to stay closed to Neuschwanstein. It… read more takes only half an hour to get the town. Also, if you are a hiking lover, there are so much you can explore.

The work always starts feeding the cat, cleaning stables, sweeping leaves, sometimes sawing wood, cleaning the house (common area and private rooms) And, the work Anja gave me by steps instead of pouring everything at the first moment. As well as, the time I got there was between autumn and winter. She decided where the horses stayed and how they eat.
Therefore, it was little bit difficult to follow up at the first week. Everyday was different.

When Anja knew I like Kakis, she bought them frequently. She brought me to a cheese shop, and bought some cheese which I preferred. We had three meals together. Breakfast and dinner we had bread, she cooked lunch. She would like to teach and practice German with me.
This is a really good place to improve German if you do know basic conversations. I don't have that ability ,so when Anja and her family confirmed something already, she had to tell me again. And sometimes I only understood what she wanted me to do, but I didn't know the reason. For instance, she told me cleaning the stables is after breakfast, but sometimes she asked me to start it before breakfast. This kind of situations and changes confused me. But if you know German, maybe you would know at the first moment while they were chatting.

Anja was a nice host. She cared if I'm happy there if I habe enough warm. She has a snack bar all you can eat. I can organise my day off.
However, most of time I felt stressful here. The first work day her niece gave me bad attitude when she showed me the work. The second morning, Anja was mad just because I didn't askd if she wanted to have a tea even I didn't have a tea for myself. I just drank warm water. She gave me a lecture right away. She was tense and spoke with negetive way during working. She said this is too slow if you do this way you will spend six hours. This thing happened many times I tried my best to do what she wanted until one day she told me I have to be fast. I didn't know why to be fast is so important here. It's farm lifestyle. And I'm not an employee. Of course Compared to them, I am slow. Not only Anja but also her niece was very powerful. She was nice when winter came, horses went into the winter schedule. She explained the way and showed me the work. Unfortunately, I didn't do the work as she expected, and I asked the questions a lot. She became so rude to me for couple of days. Even that was the beginning of winter schedule only 3-4 days. I am sure anyone needs time to get used to. After I told Anja, she fixed the problem exchanging she gave me a long speech ,and she questioned me a lot.
I was the first Asian workawayer. They have many good feedback from European people. I tried not to think about "that way". Even if my arm were good, I wouldn't promise I could stay there for two months.
I was hesitating if I should leave the feedback. As for her speech, I will manage my feedback now. Moreover, even I left there about three weeks. Sometimes, the bad moments popped up in my mind. I wanna cut it back and say goodbye. This is not a right place for me, but it was many people's perfect place.

I was supposed to stay there two weeks, but I only stay there for five days. I arrived there on Monday evening and left on Saturday morning.
The reason is her son is sick. She gave me kr. 250 and said "My son is sick l. I think you should leave. It's better" You can use the money to stay in hostel and find another place.
This is so lame!!! That… read more

Tung arrived during a time when myself I was on a vacation trip, but she managed to find the way to our farm and start the work with the other workers without problems. She is very efficient and likes to take things in hand, so very soon she was part of the team. As we mostly speak english her german language progresses were maybe not as big as… read more

We had a great time with Tung. Easy going, no problems and a lot of fun. Did a great job in the garden and the house with Hennie. She let's us taste the Taiwanese cuisine and learned us to make Taiwanees crepes. A lot of fun! Always welcome when she is in the neighbourhood!
