Deixado pelo Workawayer (Jarla & Hannes) para o anfitrião (Come and help us with our ...)

Amy and Alexis are without a doubt the best hosts you could ever wish for. We stayed three months with them and if you are hesitating to visit them, go for it. You will not find a better hosts in France!

Before visiting Amy, Alexis and their three children (the A-team ;)) we had no Workaway/traveling experience at all and therefore were obviously… read more very nervous.
In addition to that, we had to delay our visit by a few days, because our train got cancelled – we felt really bad and were not sure if we had already made a bad first impression. But Amy and Alexis were the most patient, positive and comforting hosts we could have wished for. They were supportive (Helping with bus/train schedules in their area, picking us up, etc.) and with their help, we arrived safely and without great stress.
When we arrived, we also got greeted by their three wonderful children. Adrien, Aliena and Ashlyn are the most open-minded and charismatic children we ever met. From the first day we felt welcomed and like a part of their family. The warmth and kindness we experienced was out standing and really makes us believe that we have made lifelong friends.
They also introduced us to their neighbours, friends, relatives and most importantly their three cats. >.<

We had a clean, very nice room with ensuite bathroom, really good, high quality and healthy food (Alexis is a great cook) and a breathtaking view out of the kitchen window (doing the dishes instantaneously became our favourite household chore).
The work we did, was divers and a mix out of working in the garden, playing and caring for the kids, small renovating projects (painting, restoring old furniture etc.) and some basic household chores (cooking, getting groceries etc.). They were really open about the work we did and always kept an eye on us taking enough breaks and days off as well as letting us choose our own worktime.
During our free time, we went camping, swimming, ate pastries, visited the local markets and Alexis showed us the most beautiful hiking trails. We could even borrow one of their cars to go sightseeing.
There are beautiful caves, castles and so much more to find.
They took really good care of us and it never got boring!
We had beautiful trips and moments with the family as well as wonderful adventures as a couple. They truly respected our privacy.

In the end, the time flew by and we really wished for an even longer stay. Since our departure we truly miss the A-team and we will come back without a doubt. We left France with so many beautiful memories and a new family that now and always will have a special place in our hearts.
Thank you for letting us become part of your life.

Jarla and Hannes stayed with us three months (mid Sept to mid-Dec) - it was the first time we had workawayers for such a long time and to be honest, we were a little nervous about it but accepted because they seemed really nice and like a good fit for our family when we had a video chat. It turns out, we had nothing to be worried about - it has… read more been absolutely wonderful and we all wish their stay was even longer!

While with us, Hannes and Jarla helped with many day to day tasks (meals - they are good cooks, straightening up, picking up kids or groceries, etc...) as well as an assortment of house and garden projects (gardening, clearing brush, digging, sewing, painting, repairing the pond, etc..) and taking care of the kids (board games with the big ones, arts and crafts with the little one), and even taking the kids to visit a castle, cave, and a number of hikes. They know how to do quite a few things and were super eager to learn new skills. An important part of this is that they did not hesitate to ask questions to make sure they were doing things correctly - and they are speedy learners!

We really enjoyed having Jarla and Hannes stay with us. They are SUPER upbeat, enthusiastic, and positive which is lovely to have around the house. They are both kind, thoughtful, and generous people. They were respectful of family rules and habits, chipped in with normal family tasks and activities without having to ask, and were always happy to help out. They are easy going and didn't mind that our plans change often (life with 3 kids who have different interests). They were good at communicating so that everything kept going smoothly throughout the stay. Hannes and Jarla are also a lovely couple – they are attentive, caring, and respectful towards each other which is nice to be around and is a good positive model for our kids.

Jarla and Hannes got along with everyone in our household and fit in perfectly. We had lovely conversations with them, they became very close friends with our older kids (17 and 14 at the time), and played and joked well with our little one (7 at the time) who keeps wondering why they couldn't just keep staying with us. Through the 3 months, we have gotten close to them and know that we have made new lifelong friends – part of our new “extended family”. We are excited for them to continue their adventures elsewhere even if we miss having them here. We are looking forward to seeing and hearing about their travels and the next phases in their lives, and are quite confident that we will see them again - as we told them, they are welcome back anytime they want!

You would be very hard pressed to find better workawayers than Hannes and Jarla – they were helpful around the house, hard workers, and absolutely lovely people. We couldn’t recommend them more! The sort of exchange we had with them is what makes workaway so wonderful!
