Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado
You'll get to know the climate and culture, especially the culture of horse people, sheep farmers and country side people in Iceland. And the nature here is stunning. Great hiking oportunites in June-September, if you like hiking. We have cross country skis if you like to ski (in winter). There's a swimming pool with hot tub and sauna close to the farm.
It's a super fun cultural exchange, getting to know Iceland in so many ways, and having fun with us the local farmers.Anfitriões que oferecem uma remuneração de acordo com o salário mínimo do país.

Algo mais...
We live in a very rural and beautiful area, with lots of space, and arctic beauty, we're pretty close to the ocean, and breathtaking mountains.
It's very rural in Iceland, there are usually at least a couple of kilometers between different farms, and 25 km to the next villages. So, there is a lot of peace and space. A hidden pearl to escape from the high energy modern cities in other countries.
