Description
So we are a little chaotic at times, quite busy but always happy! The mom of the house, Bergþóra, works at the hospital as a nurse and the dad, Orri is an elecrician. The young one's are Hafdís Hekla 8-years old, Margrét Heiða 6 year old and Orri Björn 2 year old. They all have big feelings and can be determined, but at the same time they are the most loving kids, they love people and are quite polite and nice. The other addition to the family are the two dogs, Dimma and Ovi, Dimma is very vell trained and behaved, lets say that Ovi is a work in progress😅.
We play ice hockey, we hunt in the mountains as well as riding horses. We like to be on the move but we also love being lazy in between. The WW are just a very pleasant addition to our home, and we are keen to make them happy and involve them in our lives.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
Well, at least our WW are one of the family members in our home, they are a part of the family. We do ice hockey, we hunt we ride and hike... and are an active and busy family! If there is something that the WW wants/needs, we'll at least try our best to make it happen.

Aide
We need someone to be responsible for keeping the house clean, that means five hours per day, five days a week. It´s all about hoovering, mopping, dusting, doing loundry and also keeping our two dogs company and walking them from time to time. We are very flexible, and we emphasize that the WW get most of the experience, so sometimes they do more, and sometimes less. We help our WW with travelling and any other arrangements.

Hébergement
We live in a quite big house, close to the center. The WW has their own room with a cozy bed and a wardrobe. If they WW wants to do something different Bergþóra´s mom is a farmer with cows, sheep and horses- So there is always a possibility to visit there and get to know the Icelandic farm-life.
Autres infos...
Akureyri is probably the smallest city you'll ever go to. That means, our small-town has almost everything a big city has - and more! We have art, sports,restaurants, bars, museums, University and much more. We also have great nature in our back yard, so hiking, niking, skiing and riding horses are just a few minutes away (never more then 10 minutes in car, but easily accessed by foot). In Akureyri life is pretty simple.. in the winter it can be really cold and a lot of snow.. but at the same time easy and fun. Akureyri is also very safe and really no crimes.

It was my first winter in Iceland and I didn't expect to find a family to host me during this mainly private time.
They all made it very special for me!
They took me into their everyday Icelandic life and let me take part in… read more
