Description
We love to meet people and learn about them - their culture, way of life and thoughts. Brian works as an art teacher for intellectually disabled adults.He also volunteer tutors math in the neighborhood public school. Andrea works as a library coordinator for the Free Library of Philadelphia where she helps promote library programs. We met in graduate school for Library and Information Sciences so reading and learning is a big part of our lives. Brian loves gardening and work projects and Andrea loves horses and is on the board of our neighborhood non-profit stable. Andrea is very involved in the arts, too- she embroiders, works with beads, draws (she did her undergrad degree in illustration.) Our multicultural family often hosted foreign students before the pandemic. We love to take walks and hikes in nature, exploring new places and revisiting familiar ones. Brian is the adventurous family cook, Andrea the laundress. We have three grown children and four grandchildren whom we love dearly. We have family in Ecuador and visit whenever we can!

Niklas was so warm and welcoming and this place began to feel like home to us! The Umeå and lake area is so gorgeous ! We helped out transplanting tomatoes, working in the garden, moving firewood and other kind of household stuff. So wonderful to share tasty meals with his warm, extended family and go on some adventures with his young son. We… read more

This place is a jewel and Åshild is a jewel as well. Days of dandelion and nettle picking, gardening, barn plank painting..delicious, festive meals with Åshild and the other helpers - so interesting, so lovely. ..We are so grateful. ❤️

Misha, Pavel, Meda, Ada and Sníhzhik (the best dog)are a beautiful family and we regret we were only able to stay with them a handful of days. They have put so much work into modernizing their very old mud brick house and it is super comfortable. Completing the stone walkway was fun with Ada and Meda fluttering about. How we enjoyed vegan meals… read more

We are so happy that Brian and Andrea chose us for their workaway in Czech Republic. It was an absolute delight to have them. The only negative thing is that they could stay only few days, we wished they could stay with us much longer :)

I have never seen someone so enthusiastic about everything as Brian. He did so much work here (always with a… read more

Hosting Brian and Andrea was a great decision. They are super nice, very friendly and hard-working. I couldn't believe what I saw when I got to the greenhouse. They tidied it up, and I could plant my vegetables. And the garden become nice, clean and tidy. I wish they could stay longer because we always had a nice chat, and Maya started picking up… read more

We had a lovely time in May with Hana and Maya. It was rewarding cleaning up the greenhouse, garage and garden and then seeing things get ready for late spring planting. The countryside where they are located is open, beautiful and calming. We spent some time exploring the historic town a short walk away. But most of all we enjoyed spending time… read more

We had the pleasure of Brian and Andrea for 10 days. They are incredibly pleasant and helpful people. They did a great job here. Our girls really liked them. We wish they could have been here longer. We send the best recommendations from here. Hope to see them again.

We spent just 10 days with Mikkel. Anna, Sif and Gry and it was a magical 10 days. We had a great combination of work (barn painting and some household chores), cultural interaction, rest, family ventures to the beach and a nearby town, and some delicious shared dinners. The serenity and beauty of our living space and the countryside enchanted us.… read more
