Steinunn is an amazing, very talented, and creative person. I was lucky to spend two weeks at her place, helping out in the garden and inside the house. It's such a peaceful space where you instantly feel at home and the garden is beautiful. I loved hearing about all the plants she has!

I spent amazing two weeks at a lovely house which is hiding in a tiny forest. In this magic house, a magic couple lives, the angel and chef in one person, Steinunn, her charming storyteller, Bubbi, and three cats. They are very nice and warm people. I felt there like at home. Thank you for all your kindness. Hope to see you again!

Being used to working on big projects before I found it challenging at the beginning but I got accustomed to the peculiarities of my hosts (including cats) and the rythm of the house. I felt like Harry Potter at times in a tiny (but cosy and private) room upstairs.

I arranged a last minute workaway with Steinunn when I had to cancel a month long workaway on a farm in Iceland which I could no longer manage due to an injury. I felt very lucky that Steinunn could host me for 2 weeks, and then was even helpful enough to arrange for me to stay with her wonderful friend Inga Pala for another 10 days straight… read more

I have nothing to say except this was the best Workaway experience I've ever done. Steinunn and Sigurdur are amazing hosts, very careful and polite. I felt at home from the beginning. I spent there around one month and it was such a great experience, every day was better and better. I miss them so much!

I had a really nice time with Steinunn. She has a really nice hose with a central location, a lot to see and do around and an fairy tale like surroundings.
So if you like a lot of good food, can help with some craftsmanship tasks or in the garden, then you should visit them. I will do it again on my next Iceland visit.
