My stay with Dexter at Heidi and Gøran's home could not have been better. Dexter is one of the sweetest senior cat I have ever met, with his unique charismatic personality and laid-back attitude, and we got along very well, both being originally Portuguese. 😊🥰Communication with the hosts was excellent and I felt really welcome and at home. The

Sortland is beautiful with countless opportunities for sightseeing, mountain adventures and photography. Heidi is the most caring host ever, will ensure you have everything you need and will give you great tips on walks and places to see/visit in Vesterålen. Every time the sun shone, I had the opportunity to embark on a new adventure. I feel very grateful for this experience, I miss Dexter and highly recommend Heidi and Gøran as hosts! I hope to meet them all again some day!

Sometimes there are opportunities in life that are almost too good to be true--this was definitely one of them. Cat-sitting with a view as amazing as this one?! Yes please!

Claudia came to look after our cat Dexter as we were going to make some small trips during two longer weekends. I got sick during the first planned trip and we ended up staying home.

We spent over 10 days with Dexter while Heidi and her boyfriend were away on holiday. She was very welcoming and we felt right at home.

Jana and Tomas looked after my cat Dexter for about one week while I was traveling. I couldn't have asked for someone better to take care of him while I was away.

Sortland and surrounding areas are interesting parts of Norway, and we’d recommend it to any Norwegian lover.

This was my first Workaway experience and it was great. I looked spontaneously for a host in northern Norway and became immediately an answer by Heidi. I stayed at hers with cat Dexter for round about 10 days in Sortland while she was away. Both welcomed me notably kind and she made her amazing Norwegian pancakes for me which were truly delicious.

Furthermore, Sortland as well as the surrounding area is beautiful and i would recommend to explore the nature, going to the public sauna and listen to the tips Heidi tells you! All in all, I had a wonderful time, got a little bit to relax, appreciated the time with Dex and had a great first Workaway experience. Hope i see you both again.Solo puedes ponerte en contacto con workawayers con membresías activas.
