  Beschreibung

  Hei, I am Eva, 32 years old, and four years ago I moved from Germany to Hinnøya, Norway's biggest island, where I have a small hobby farm with some sheep, rabbits, chicken and a vegetable garden. The farm is beautifully located on a Fjord with a view over to Vesterålen.
  
  There are many hiking opportunities nearby, just a couple of minutes by car before you can head out into the wilderness of mountains, valleys and plateaus.

  Arbeit

  2 workaway options available (see below):
  
  1. From the end of July til mid of August 2025 I am looking for someone to stay on my farm and look after my animals (2 sheep, 5 rabbits and some chicken) and the vegetable garden while I'm on holiday. The date is somewhat flexible & I would need someone who can stay for ca. 8-10 days.
  In the morning and evening the animals need to be fed, left outside/inside, and once a week the rabbit enclosures need to be cleaned. Weather-dependent the vegetables need to be watered and weeded.
  Ideally I am looking for someone who is experienced with (farm) animals.
  
  Beside the farmwork there will be plenty of time for you to enjoy the beautiful landscape of Norway’s biggest island.
  
  
  2. I'm always looking for people who can help me with different jobs on the farm such as building and fixing fences, small wooden projects, hay harvest, etc. I'm looking for someone who is practically skilled and physically strong (ca. 1-week stay).
  
  
  For both options, I would prefer someone who is travelling with a camper as the guestroom is currently getting renovated. About 2 km from my farm, I own a small private campsite right at the fjord where you can park your camper overnight. The campsite doesn't have sanitary installations though. Of course you can use my house with bathroom, kitchen and living room with TV during your stay.
  When the weather is nice, you can enjoy the view from the verandah over the fjord to Vesterålen. If you like we can cook together, and if you're interested I'm more than happy to show you around in the area.
  
  The nearest supermarket is 25 km away, and the next bigger city is Harstad which is ca. 35 km away.
  
  Preferably, I am looking for someone who is 25 years or older. Couples are welcome, too.
