Hello, my name is Joseph and I am 58 years of age. I like yoga, mountain biking and exploring the area trails and wineries. We are have a small 6.5 acre farm in Fairfax Station Virginia, close to DC. It's location is five minutes away from a quaint historic town, Clifton, Virginia. There are 4 horses, more than 10 Nigerian dwarf goats (some are babies), chickens, pigs, a vegetable garden, a pool, an 8 stall barn and a meandering creek on the farm. Its a laid back and fun atmosphere.

So pleasant, kind, motivated and joyful to be around. I truly enjoyed having Nathalie and her daughter stay at my farm. I highly recommend them as they have horse experience, farm experience, gardening and so many good ideas on how to make things better.

WOW - Joseph was our first workaway experience and it was ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!! There were so many opportunities to work on the farm and help mark items off his "to do list"! We regret that we did not have longer to stay but we look forward to returning in the future - we have definitely developed a "life long friend" in Joseph. THANK YOU!!!

We went horse riding, paddleboarding, we had delicious meals with great and deep conversations by the fire and for sure I´ll always remember this experience!… read more

Iveta was a true pleasure to host and spend time with. She is a hard worker, considerate, respectful, easy going and a pleasure to be around. She became part of our family and when she left there was an empty feeling in the home. She did so many things for us and with us. I wish her the very best in life. Wow, she is great!
