Description
UPDATE: I get sooooo many messages every day. Thank you all for that. But I'm not able to host everyone and answer all messages. I'm really sorry about that
Hi :)
My name is Marlene and me and my husband run a diary farm in South Iceland with 60 milking cows.
I am german and have been living in Iceland since 2012
We also have 4 kids, one dog and three cats. And horses.
Our farm is family run and we do everything around here ourselves.
We live close to the famous waterfall Seljalandsfoss and the ferry to the west man islands is a short drive as well.
The next town 23km from us called Hvolsvöllur
We seek help to maintain the garden and the house. Like painting, gardening and light house work.
We're not looking for a full-time help in the cow stable

Aide
Since my husband and me have a lot of work on the farm I would wish for help with gardening and keeping the place nice.
Painting would be nice. And stuff like that that takes some of the load from our shoulders.
Some help in the house. Light cleaning.

Hébergement
We have a guest room in our house where we also live
Depending on the kids schedules we often eat dinner all together since they're in school during the day .
We can't accommodate vegetarians or vegan. The next supermarket is 23km away.
Autres infos...
We do live outside the city. That's quite obvious :)
There is a bus going from Reykjavik to Hvolsvöllur or Landeyjahöfn.
We can provide a car to go sightseeing for certain days but not all days.

I found it a little hard to find tasks for her which she liked. Mostly she would finish tasks in a hurry to get inside and be in her room.
We tried a couple of times to take her with and include her in our family which was not successful… read more
Too much work in the stable for the services they provided in my opinion.
Sadly I did most of my tasks alone, I also had little to no opportunities to get to know Island or find friends.
The kids were mostly kind and open, in general the family was kind to me,it was just not… read more
