Ayuda
I do not require more helpers for this year 2026!!
In general, I am always looking for some help with the household, the outdoor area and the garden. It is our private home and has a big garden areal.
For the year 2027, I am now looking for helpers for early spring, from beginning of April through May. Work would be depending on the weather, most gardening and light maintenance.
There are a few easy things that need to be fixed in our home and others that need maintenance, cleaning and painting.
We have a big garden areal that needs to be worked in, there is always gardening, including weeding, cutting trees, cutting grass, planting, fencing.
Besides, help with daily household chores, house cleaning and cooking is always appreciated. With our family, you will have the opportunity to stay in one of the most beautiful places in the world and be a member of our family. We do have two dogs, two rabbits and horses.
We are a busy but talkative family and enjoy sharing stories about our lifestyle with people from other countries.
The kids are really good with languages, they are raised bilingual (Icelandic - German), and the also speak English. -

Algo más...
We live close to a small village where there is basically everything for your daily needs, including a nice outdoor swimming pool.
Even though many of the most famous Icelandic tourist attractions are in the region, it is rather difficult to get there without a car. As I cannot provide a car, I am happy to assist with planning sightseeing trips. -

Roughly two months later (end of August), I contacted them again, giving them my address and phone number, but haven't heard back from them nor have they showed up. :-(
Not only that we couldn't have found a better person both for our oldie (16 years old!) and our young energetic Border collie, she ALSO did a whole lot of work in the garden … read more
Uwe is a real handyman and did a lot of small and medium sized repairs in the house and outside, and he really seemed to enjoy it! Valeska was painting a lot and helping him when necessary. They are the most reliable and hard-working … read more

I spent 3 weeks at the place of Christiane in September and I really miss my time there together with her lovely children, the dog and the horses and just a beautiful country.
