Description
Maybe there is somebody who is traveling in Norway already?
Hello! We are a patchwork family living in the beautiful countryside of Vikedal, Norway.
Recently we bought a wonderful house surrounded by wild forest and nature. The house has a traditional grass roof and a large outdoor area. It is a fantastic place, but after buying it we realized that the garden and outdoor areas will need quite a bit of love and care this spring – so we would love some help bringing it back to life.
Our family consists of me (36) and my partner (39). He has two children, and my two children (10 and 7 years old) live with us 50% of the time. We also share our home with a friendly dog and a cat.
Tasks with us may include helping with gardening, some house tasks, spending time with the kids, occasionally cooking, and maybe taking the dog for a walk. Life here is quite relaxed and nature is all around us, so it’s a great place if you enjoy the outdoors.
I have previous experience hosting through Workaway, although that was before we moved into this house. My partner is new to Workaway, but very positive about the experience.
We speak Norwegian at home. My 10-year-old daughter and I also speak German, and all of us speak good English. There I would of course like more support from a workawayer so that our children get even more German input :)
I work as a school assistant, and my partner is a trained teacher (English and music) and currently works as a department leader at a secondary school. He also plays in a band.
We hope to create a warm, welcoming environment where we can share everyday life, meals, conversations, and experiences.
If you enjoy nature, family life, and helping with outdoor projects, you might feel right at home here with us.
I'm open to all questions, just contact us :)
We prefer a German-speaking person because of our children.

So much time I've spent at this wonderful place with a wonderful family. From the first day on they let me feel like I'm a part of the family.

Carolin was a wonderful help, she did a very good job. She was very warm and loving with our daughter and has always done her jobs fast and was hard working.

They are both very warm-hearted and kind hosts, trying to make my stay in November as good as possible. The work was not too hard, the room was cosy, particularly when you get woken by a sheep standing in front of your window making mähh. And the food was… read more
