Descripción
I live on a small farm with my dog, cat, 3 icelandic horses, and some hens. The farm is 5 km from the village/shops. It is situated 100m above sea level, surrounded by beautiful mountains and close to the fjords.
It may be possible to go for a ride with one of the horses, if you are an experienced rider. About 15km away is Flåm where the railway to Myrdal goes from, making a connection between the Bergen-Oslo railway.
It is possible for you to borrow a bike whilst you are here.
In the winter temperaturea vary; it can be as cold as minus 10 degrees C! Although it is more often that temperatures vary between plus 7 and minus 5. It also snows sometimes.

I am very fond of handcraft; of making things of leather, tanning skins, brewing beer the traditional way, and making wine from the start (as opposed to from a kit). I am very engaged in aquiring my own food; most of the meat I eat is from animals that I have slaughtered myself or exchanged with the neighbours. I am British and speak Norwegian fluently, so you have the opportunity to improve your English or learn Norwegian. If you have been stuck "in the fast lane" then this is the perfect place to be to take "time out" and see life from another perspective together with a slightly mad English woman who thinks it's completely normal to tan a goat, use it as a handbag and has just bought a hoverboard that she is trying to tame :)
It is possible to take a walk in the nearby area; enjoy the forest and the nature, listen to the owls calling in the evening. My work includes teaching students how to milk cows, feed and care for the animals at school (cows, goats, sheep and horses). I am also the workhorse teacher, and am a trained hoof trimmer, so as a hobby job I trim the hooves of unshod horses.
Depending on the time of year you may be able to join me on a trip to the mountains with a packhorse :)
Ayuda
You should be able to, and enjoy helping independantly as I have a full time job teaching at the farming school 5 km away.
As I live in an old house there is quite a bit of maintenance work to do, and all sorts of odd chores, painting, general maintenance, also fixing fences. It is useful if you have carpentry and handy skills, but there are tasks here to suit most people. Other tasks may include cutting and splitting wood, training horses, picking up horse dung. Sometimes you are welcome to join me at my work, as a variation, and as it's nice to meet other people :) The average age of the students is about 25.
I have a cabin in the mountains, beside the main road. It has no electricity, so cooking is done on the wood burner oven or gas. There is some work that needs doing on it (for example painting the outside). It is 14 km from my home. So it is possible for someone to stay there for a few days in the summer to help, and take trips in the nearby mountains 😊
If you have experience with training Icelandic horses then you are particulary welcome! One of the horses is a 3 year old so I am in the process of training her.
I have a project to convert a horse cart to a small gypsy caravan so if you have skills that can help with this then that is great!

Alojamiento
I live in an old farmhouse; some parts are 200 yrs old. You wil have your own bedroom (not heated). There is a modern bathroom and toilet (!). My meals consist of a variety of meat, fish, beans, lentils, egg, vegetables. I can cater for a vegetarian, but not for a vegan. I do not use wheat flour; but I do use dinkel/spelt and rye. I also use dairy products in cooking. I will make most of the meals but if you enjoy cooking then it would be great to take turns and to have help with the washing up, and general houswork. Heating in the house is from a woodburner oven (apart from in the bathroom). It can be cold in the winter as improving the insulation is still on the "to do" list!
I do not have internet (only via my phone) or a TV at home, but it is possible to go to the cafè in the village 5.5 km away on bike and get access to the internet.
I live slightly out in the countryside, although I do have neighbours. Good neighbours :)
Algo más...
I have a bike that is possible to borrow. Take a hike to the fjord or the mountains. Skiing is also possible :)
It is possible to hire a kayak and paddle on the fjord.

Hannah spent about a week with me helping with a variety of tasks (that she has mentioned in her feedback for me so I won't go through them again). Hannah was a really great help for me during these busy days leading up to Christmas; she made some lovely meals and is a great cook! It was such a treat to have someone making meals for me! She made… read more

Can please anyone invent a new word, that has more power than "Thank you"? It is just not enough.
Hannah welcomed me with home-made chocolate, beer and wine, introduced me to very friendly dog, crazy chicken and calm horses. And don't forget the nice neighbors around, who were very open towards me, when I joined Hannah, while she was slaughtering… read more

It was such a great help to have Clayton to stay! Always positive and asking what he can help with. He is good at taking initiative to do things he knows needed to be done. It was so nice to make dinner whilst listening to Clayton play the guitar (something he does really well!)

I stayed only one week with Hannah and by the end I really wished I could have stayed longer. The valley where she lives must be one of the most beautiful places in Norway. I loved exploring up in the woods at the foot of the mountains and going to the lake in the moonlight, and an extra bonus is bringing her awesome and sweet dog along with you… read more

I stayed with Hannah for two weeks in September and this was my first work away experience. Although the weather was a little fickle, it would rain cats and dogs one day and then the next be absolutely beautiful out, Hannah's home is the perfect place to take a break. While I was at Hannah's I worked on mucking out one of her cellars, I helped… read more

I stayed at Hannah's place for two weeks in July. The weather was wonderful and it was everything I was looking for. I repaired a horse wagon, learned new skills like welding (which was awesome!) and it was overall a very relaxing experience. We went on a horse trip in the mountains and the environment is truly a little fairytale. You can go on… read more

It was great to have Anne-Lijsbeth to stay! She is good at taking initiative and is very thorough in her work. We got on really well and packed a lot in to 2 weeks. Anne-Lisjbeth works well independantly. If she starts on a task she will do a good job on it and do it thoroughly. Her main project at my place was doing a complete restauration of a… read more

I spent two wonderful weeks at Hannah's quiet place that is surrounded by mountains, woods, a lake and countless waterfalls - truly magical for someone like me who needed to regain some energy very badly. Hannah makes you feel very welcome, and she makes sure you'll have a great experience in rural Norway. She's very easy to get along with, she's… read more
