Description
Hi!
Me (Mikael) and Marte live at the countryside in Vestland with our two kids (2 and 4yo) and two cats. We have travelled a lot around the world (also through workaway), and moved to this farm in early 2020. We have continued to renovate the buildings to make this farm shine again. Occationally we rent rooms for people to come visiting us, but we have no practical income on this activity and Workawayers are not helping in any of this activity.
There are a lot of different work still to be done. We are looking for 1-2 people (preferably a traveling couple or two friends) who will be willing to help us out on this journey!
We are an open minded family that have already welcomed people from all over the world. Our kids are also used to new people, love to play and learn from the experience of welcoming new people in to our family for periods.

Aide
At the moment we are restoring an old farm house from 1908. At this project, we could really need some extra hands. Our goal is to create a space that can be used for gatherings for friends and family. We try to build in the traditional style ("grindbygg"), and focus on reusing old materials as much as possible. It would be nice if you have some carpentry skills, but its not mandatory. If you have any other skills, we will be happy to include those in the workday as a secondary priority. It might also be some occational babysitting if you are comfortable with that :)

Hébergement
You will live in the main house in your own room with shared bathroom. The house is over 100yo, a newly renovated timber house that holds a high standard.
We will eat some of the meals together, and some seperate. You will have access to basic groceries (not luxury groceries) to make your own food now and then. You have access to a large and cozy kitchen where you can cook and also store the food (fridge and freezer).
Autres infos...
We prefer to have two volunteers and that have your own car. Public transport is limited and the nearest town is 15-20 min from the farm. We are going to town regularly, so there will be several opertunities to get there and back, but we cannot adjust our departure time too much.
The nature is just outside the doorstep, so the possibility for exploring the nature is good. Lots of hiking possibilities.
