Descrição
We are in the process of establishing an animal-assisted therapy center for children with disabilities in Windhoek. Our idyllic farm is home to lovely dogs, lazy cats, very cute miniature horses, two horses, affectionate donkeys, and the cuddly-looking alpacas Puschel, Wuschel, and Kuschel. There's also a playful "circus" goat named Putzi, alongside numerous tortoises, rabbits, and guinea pigs.
Our farm is an ideal haven for those who have a deep appreciation for nature and animals, and who are passionate about contributing to the well-being of children with disabilities from economically challenged families in Namibia. There is a refreshing pool which can be used together with the children or just for your own enjoyment.
Please note that, as our project relies solely on donations, we kindly ask you to arrange for your own meals. We offer access to our kitchen, and approximately twice a week, we can go together to the supermarket. In exchange for about 2-3 hours of assistance with farm tasks, we provide free accommodation. Your support is invaluable to us, and we look forward to welcoming you to our meaningful endeavor.
We prefer people to stay with us for 2-3 weeks.

Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado
You can relax in a beautiful natural surrounding, enjoying the time with our friendly animals and learning about the difficult lives of families with children with disabilities who never got any previous support.
We have San Bushmen residing on our farm who make ends meet by offering two-hour Bushman Walks. During these walks, visitors have the opportunity to delve into their ancient wisdom and almost extinct hunters & gatherers lifestyle. For those interested, you can book a walk with them, exploring different plants, fire-making techniques, and various cultural aspects.
Projetos que envolvem crianças
Este projeto pode envolver crianças. Para mais informações, veja aqui nossas diretrizes e dicas.
Ajuda
We would love for you to spend time with our animals, offering cuddles and perhaps even participating in their training. Alternatively, you can simply enjoy the company of our inquisitive alpacas. Your assistance with typical farm tasks such as cleaning the paddocks, grooming the animals, and providing food and water would be greatly appreciated. Please also lend a hand with household chores, such as sweeping the floor, as the house tends to accumulate dirt quite easily.
Our physically and mentally challenged children attend from Monday to Friday, and you are encouraged to visit them in the therapy houses at your convenience. You will experience the immense happiness of our children as a response to your interaction with them.

Algo mais...
When we head to town, you're welcome to join us in Windhoek, where an abundance of malls and shopping facilities awaits. If you feel the need for a break from the remote farm life, immerse yourself in the vibrant city atmosphere. For those seeking a safari experience, we can drop you off at Okapuka Farm, a mere 10 km away, where giraffes, zebras, rhinos, and crocodiles roam freely in the wild. Additionally, there are nearby hiking and riding opportunities at Elisenheim Guestfarm.

Deixado pelo Workawayer (Michellekl) para o anfitrião
I spent almost 2 weeks with Nicole and Julie. They picked me up from the city and I felt like home from the first moment!
I had a very large room with a private bathroom, what a luxury!
In terms of location, it is not really far from Windhoek (20 minutes by car) and whenever Nicole has to go into the city you can go with her.

Deixado pelo Workawayer (Junod & Simonet) para o anfitrião
We stay 2 1/2 weeks at Nicole place and it was a nice time. The description is accurate, Nicole is very easy going and doesn't ask a lot of work. We were quite independent about our schedule and we mostly manage our time as we wanted.
We helped to clean around before the TV came, built a horse paddock, built a trough from a electric drum and other… read more

Deixado pelo Workawayer (Benjamin & Marie-Lucie) para o anfitrião
We had a great time at Nicole and Julie's farm. The deal was perfect even though we were 5 ! Nicole offered a beautiful large bedroom with luxury attached bathroom. We could use the kitchen and living area which was great for relaxing or homeschooling time 😌. The work asked was quite light, compared to other experiences, and Nicole trusted us to… read more

In short: That's how a workaway family should be! Marie & Benjamin stayed with their kids on our farm and it could not have been better! They are very hard-working and the list with things what they did during their stay with us is endless! Removing terrible sticky weeds and stones from our paddock, repairing and fixing kitchen sinks, training our… read more

Feito pelo anfitrião para o Workawayer (Tarek)
We were happy to have Tarek for 4 weeks with us! He had great fun with my daughter, helped in repairing fences and ventilators, building a gate and so on and so on. So definetely it was great to have a handyman around, especially after the long period without volunteers due to COVID-19. Tarek is very open minded and much interested in the real… read more

We were very happy to have Marie & Antoine with us! They stayed two weeks in complete harmony with us and helped us on the farm, i.e. building a gate for the goat paddock, helping finishing our alpaca shed and doing various other tasks. I hope one day they will come back again!

Feito pelo anfitrião para o Workawayer (Melanie)
After a long period of not having volunteers with us we were more than happy that Melanie could be first one who joined us on our farm. We had a good time whilst visiting some nearby lodges and together with my daugter she enjoyed a lot the swimming pool of our neighbour. Melanie stayed 5 weeks with us and time passed so quickly. She helped in… read more

Deixado pelo Workawayer (Melanie) para o anfitrião
Meine zweite Erfahrung vom Workaway Lifestyle und bin dankbar für die Gastfreundschaft. Ich war 5. Wochen bei Nicole und der 7 - jährigen Julie. Das Projekt von Nicole ist großartig und steht noch am Anfang. Deshalb gab es nicht viel zu tun und man ist mit der Arbeitzeit von ca. 2h am Tag flexible. Leider gibt es noch keine Kantine, sodass man… read more
